Year 7 Transition 2025

We can't wait to welcome our new Year 7 students to the Wade Deacon family in September.

Wade Deacon is a fantastic place to learn. We will provide our new starters with a supportive and positive learning environment where they will have the opportunity to make new friends, experience new things and have fun. We want our new students to challenge themselves to reach their potential and contribute to the life of our school. We are really looking forward to helping students to discover more about themselves and their abilities and supporting them to achieve all of their goals on their learning journey with us.

We are currently developing our Transition Programme which will include two Transition Days for our new students to take place on Monday 7th and Tuesday 8th of July. We hope also to be able to visit all students at their primary schools over the summer term. All students will soon be receiving a personalised welcome letter from our Head of School, Mr Deeney. All very exciting!

The activities and resources below are designed to help us get to know each other. We will continue to add to this section over the coming months. If you have any questions, please get in touch!
