P7 Transition
Primary 7 Transition to Aboyne Academy
Making the move from primary to secondary school is a very important transition point in a pupil’s education.
There is a close relationship between Aboyne Academy and its ten associated primary schools. This helps ensure that the transition for pupils runs smoothly. The transfer of educational records from the primaries to the academy ensures detailed knowledge of each pupil is passed on when pupils move to secondary education and helps to enable a continuous learning experience for each young individual.
The main changes that pupils notice when they join the secondary school are related to the larger size of the school and the fact that their new classmates come from many different primaries. The daily routine is also quite different as each class has several teachers. Also pupils move to different parts of the school during the day to attend classes. The P7/S1 Transition programme aims to prepare pupils and parents/carers for these changes.
