Things you can do
Find out if anyone else from your current school is
going to the new school. Can you get to know one or
two of those people before you start?
Go to the open days or visit days if your new school
has them. Ask questions if there are things you want
to know.
When you visit go and see all the different areas such
as the library, the canteen, the PE hall, the changing
rooms, outside areas etc.
Take a look at your new school’s website – there will
be all sorts of information and photographs on there
that will help you get to know it better.
If you have special needs then talk to your parents
about how teachers at your new school are going to
help you.
Agree with your parents in advance about what lunch
money, bus money etc you will need each day or
week.
Try out the journey to and from the school.
If you’re allowed to, then treat yourself to something
new for your new school – such as a new rucksack or
stationery.
Make sure you have your new school uniform and PE
kit before you start and that you try it on.
