Transition
INDUCTION DAY Our Induction Day is designed to help the students learn as much as possible about the school and get them used to the idea of starting at The Wellington Academy in September. This day will give them the opportunity to meet friends, other students and staff at the school. They will experience team building activities, sample lessons and the main aim to familiarise themselves with the building and key staff. The rest of the day will be spent in tutor groups. Students will already have been organised into tutor groups from the information supplied by the students and their primary schools. These will remain the same for when your child starts at the school in September.
The Tutor groups are created to focus your child academically and with conjunction with the primary school’s advice. No changes to the tutor groups will be made before school commences in September.
This does not include extra visits as identified by the primary schools. Please contact SEN team for details.
