A very warm welcome to Dormston School. I hope you and your families are well.
Secondary school offers are due to be confirmed on Monday 3 March 2025 and we are looking forward to welcoming our new Year 7 pupils who will be joining us in September 2025.
We are committed to supporting you and your child as they move to year 7. In preparation, our transition team (Mrs A Beer and Mrs K Beer) will be visiting primary schools to introduce themselves to our new students joining Dormston in September 2025. Mrs K Beer (our Assistant Headteacher for Inclusion) will also be liaising with primary school SENDCOs concerning any children with an Educational Health Care Plan or any other learning needs they may have.
During March, you will receive a welcome letter and student forms for completion. We would be grateful if the forms could be completed by Friday 14 March 2025. In the summer term we will also provide you with a Parent/Carer information pack including important information about the school. Further information will also be available via the website. Alongside this, we will be holding an Induction Evening for parents on Monday 30th June at 6.30pm to provide you with an opportunity to meet key members of staff associated with Year 7 and provide an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have.
To help prepare our new Year 7 students for September, we will be inviting them to attend a 2 day Induction in the Summer Term. These days are a crucial time for the children to meet school staff, their peers and get a chance to experience what life is like at Dormston.
Keys dates are provided below. However, we will be writing to you nearer the time to confirm specific arrangements.
Dates for your diary:
Monday 30 June – 6.30pm – Induction Evening for Parents/Carers
Tuesday 1 and Wednesday 2 July – Our new Year 7 Induction Days
We are very pleased to be given the opportunity of working alongside you to ensure that your child not only enjoys their time at Dormston, but also learns and develops in a way that ensures that their potential is realised.
