The Burford Partnership of Schools and Transition to Secondary School
To ensure the move to secondary school is smooth and enjoyable, St Kenelm's Primary School continues to work closely with our Partnership school - Burford Secondary School. Burford organise enrichment days to which all of our Year 5 children are invited and senior leaders come to talk to parents/carers of Year 5 pupils. Since Oxfordshire County Council made changes to the free bus entitlement for Year 7 pupils, we also work with other local secondary schools including The Henry Box School and Wood Green Secondary School in Witney and Carterton Community College in Carterton, who also offer transition days for those pupils moving to their school.
St. Kenelm's Primary School works in close partnership with Burford Secondary and eight local primary schools. This strong partnership exists to develop curriculum, cultural and sporting links, as well as providing professional development opportunities for staff.
The Headteachers from the Burford Partnership of schools meet regularly. The subject leaders from the partnership also meet regularly to share good practice and to moderate work. There is a programme of activities for children in Key Stage 2 to support the transition process. The Burford Partnership also organise a range of PE festivals and tournaments for children of all ages to participate in.
For those children with Special Educational Needs or Disabilities, we liaise with the SENDCo from the secondary school in order to support a smooth transition that supports provision to meet their needs.
