We are very proud of the transition programme at our school. We feel it is vital for our new intake to feel that all their worries and questions are dealt with in a caring informative way. Key staff will meet with the Year 6 students in terms 5/6 in our feeder primary schools. Those students that are outside the Seaford area will be invited in to meet other students that are in the same position, which gives these students the sense of “not being alone” when starting a school without the primary school foundations of our community area. We invite our parents/carers into our school the week before the Taster Week for a Welcome Evening, where they will get the opportunity to also meet the tutors and key staff for Year 7.

All students who are due to start at Seaford Head School in September are invited to spend the week with us in July. This gives them a real feel of our school community. They will become familiar with their full timetable and meet all their teachers and key staff who will be welcoming them in the new academic year. This week allows students to adjust to the secondary school environment, know where their classrooms are and what subjects they will be studying. We feel it vital for the new Year 7 students to feel confident and excited about starting with us in September after the long, summer break.
To encourage the new Year 7 students to socialise and strengthen their bond as a group, we also have the Fun in the Sun Festival, which is an outdoor event full of games, music and refreshments held in the early evening, along with our current Year 7. We have our whole school Fun Run on the last day of Taster Week which takes place on the Seaford promenade. This event is embraced by the whole school community and parents/carers often come along to support.
