Transition

Prior to the annual review, tutors/mentors/trusted adults will discuss with learners any potential courses that they may want to study so that they can then look for colleges that offer these in their areas.

At the annual review we will discuss with parents and the LA the young person’s preference.

We offer support with the application and interview.

If transitioning to Putney Vale Post 16 Campus, there will be a phased transition, where the learner will be able to spend time at Putney Vale before their official start date. This is to ensure the smooth transition and any anxiety is eased before they start their KS5 journey in a new setting.
