Transition from Primary School

Thank you for formally accepting your child’s place at Alder Community High School for September 2021.

We are pleased that your child has been offered a place and we look forward to welcoming your child into our school. Our Transition Team will now begin liaising with your child’s primary school in order to gather all of the relevant transition information we need to make the move as smooth as possible. If you do not consent to information being shared from primary school, please contact your child’s primary school.

Tameside LEA have allocated Thursday 1st July and Friday 2nd July as our provisional transition days. On these days, your child will attend Alder instead of their primary school. Transition days should give your child the opportunity to tour the school, meet their form tutor, meet new friends, and most importantly, make them feel confident about starting with us in September.   

Please check back regularly for updates on the transition process.
