Did you miss our virtual open evening, or do you want to remind yourself about our school? Visit www.explorestokesley.org to hear from staff and students about what's so great about attending Stokesley School. MARCH 2021 - WELCOME Year 6 students will now know that Stokesley School is their secondary school for September 2021. On behalf of Mrs Millett, our head teacher, and all the staff and students, we would like to welcome you to our school and can’t wait for you to arrive in September. Unfortunately, we have had to cancel the transition days in July for the second year running. This is a something we look forward to as much as the year 6 students. Our uniform sizing event will go ahead as planned on Friday 16th and Saturday 17th July. Students will experience a traditional transition day on Monday 6th September. This page contains some key information including dates/milestones to guide you through the next few months. UNIFORM SIZING EVENT Year 6 uniform sizing will take place on Friday 16th July from 15:30 – 19:00 and on Saturday 17th July throughout the day. During the national lockdown in July 2020, we operated a booking system for our uniform sizing event in school, this was so successful, we are using the same system this year. In July you will be able to book an appointment online at www.school-shop.co.uk from the week commencing 14th June Our school uniform supplier, School Shop, have provided us with several key pieces of information about ordering uniforms for September 2021. Here are the links to those documents: SCHOOLSHOP WELCOME LETTER MARCH 2021 SCHOOLSHOP PARENT/GUARDIAN UPDATE MARCH 2021 Transition from Year 6 into Year 7 is the start of your child’s journey through secondary education and beyond. We look forward to the students beginning their seven year journey with us. Our pastoral and SEN teams work closely to ensure that this transition is as seamless and enjoyable as possible. Transition is overseen by Mr Burns, assistant head teacher responsible for engagement and wellbeing and the head of year 7, who will be Mr Hamer in September. We work throughout the year to plan transition and this work is visible during the summer term when Mr Burns, Mr Hamer and other staff carry out a programme of visits to our main feeder primary schools. Because of our semi-rural, geographically large catchment area, we draw on a number of feeder primaries that is significantly above the national average: 39, to be precise! To help support a smooth transition we give students and their parents/carers the opportunity to visit Stokesley School, meeting key staff and learning about school life during the summer term. This is especially useful for students who we may not be able to visit in their primary setting. Year 6 students participate in a three day induction programme in July, where they get to experience lessons, learn school systems and meet school staff. SEN pupils are supported by Mrs McGreal’s SEN team, and have the opportunity to visit school outside of the induction days. We are happy to accommodate visits by Year 6 students and their parents/carers outside of standard induction, please contact office@stokesleyschool.org for more information.
