Transfer from Primary to Secondary Education
On Saturday 26th January you will receive notification of your child’s performance in the Common Entrance and/or GL Assessments. All parents, regardless of whether your child sat the tests or not, will then have the opportunity to attend a meeting in school to discuss your child’s progress and to complete the Transfer form indicating your preferences for secondary schools. However, you may decide that a meeting IS NOT required and therefore a Transfer form may be completed at home and returned to school.
Please note that information regarding secondary schools’ admissions criteria can be found at www.eani.org.uk/admission, from the websites of the schools or from a booklet which is held in our school and which you are welcome to view.

When you complete the Transfer from you may, if you so wish, submit a written statement or other information in support of your child’s application. If you intend coming to school for a meeting, may I suggest that you have it prepared so that it may be appended to the Transfer form.
