Secondary Transfer

At the age of eleven the children transfer to a number of different secondary schools. Each September, we hold an information session on secondary transfer to support parents with the process.  This is usually in conjunction with the Y6 Transition Meeting at the start of the academic year.

We encourage parents of Year 5 children to visit the secondary school in which they may be interested without their children in the first instance, and to take their children to see a ‘short list’ of preferred secondary schools, for evening viewings, when their child is in Year 6.

In July 2024, we had 60 Year 6 pupils, who moved to the following schools:

Catholic Secondary Schools   Non Catholic Schools  
St Richard Reynolds Catholic College 26 Waldegrave School 1
St Mark's Catholic School 21 Hampton School 1
Gumley House School 2 Tiffin School 1
St Paul’s Catholic College 3 Twickenham School 2
    Gordon's School 1
    The Richmond Upon Thames School 1
