Parents/carers of current year 6 students

Welcome to Highfields School!

We hope all year 6 students and their families enjoyed the recent transition event and parents’ evening. We organise these events to ensure we help your child make a smooth transition to being a Highfields student. Our school website holds all our key information and news, but specific messages will come from Mr Allsobrook who will be the year manager for year 7 in September and your first point of contact. We look forward to working with families to ensure that every student begins their Highfields journey as smoothly as possible.
