No pupil falls through the cracks at the Year 6 to Year 7 handover

Capture every pupil's safeguarding, medical, SEN and academic context in one structured, auditable record — then confirm, notify and print a handover summary the receiving school can actually use.

The problem

When a pupil moves from primary to secondary school, critical context — safeguarding flags, medical needs, SEN support, pastoral notes and KS2 scores — travels in scattered notes, spreadsheets and email threads. Records go missing, arrive incomplete, or are confirmed while still half-empty, leaving a vulnerable child's history unseen for weeks and the receiving teacher starting blind.

The solution

Primary to Secondary School Transition gives every pupil one standardized, auditable transition record with a guided handover checklist that blocks confirmation until safeguarding, medical, SEN, academic and pastoral context are genuinely complete — then notifies the guardian and prints an official summary for the receiving school.

Capabilities

Everything a Year 6 to Year 7 handover needs

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

Structured Transition Records

Standardized fields for destination school, transfer type, KS2 reading and maths scaled scores, and full safeguarding, medical, SEN and pastoral context in one auditable record instead of scattered notes.

02

Guided Handover Checklist

A dedicated checklist tracks academic, safeguarding, medical, SEN and pastoral completeness with a live completion percentage, and blocks confirmation until the handover is genuinely complete.

03

Draft, Confirmed, Done Workflow

A clear status lifecycle with a full chatter audit trail — messages, internal notes, scheduled activities and followers — for accountability and compliance.

04

Bulk Cohort Creation

A dedicated wizard lets a coordinator select — or auto-fill from a year group — a whole cohort and raise every pupil's transition record in a single action.

05

Batch Import and Export

Standard list import and export on every transition record, so existing pupil data can be onboarded and structured datasets handed between sending and receiving schools at scale.

06

Destination Requirements Comparison

A side-by-side tab shows the receiving school's stated handover requirements next to the pupil's captured data, so gaps are obvious before the transfer is confirmed.

07

Receiving School Registry

Maintain destination schools with type, address, admissions contact and handover requirements, reused across every transition and linked back via a smart button.

08

Printable Handover Summary

A one-click PDF covering pupil, transfer, academic and welfare details, ready to send to the destination school.

09

Guardian Email Notifications

Guardians receive an automatic email whenever a transition is confirmed or marked done, closing the loop with families with zero extra admin work.

Workflow

How it works

1

Register pupils

Add Year 6 pupils once, with guardian contacts and basic details, ready to be transitioned when the time comes.

2

Bulk-create transitions

Pick a year group, choose a destination school and transfer type, and raise every transition record for the cohort in one action.

3

Complete the checklist

Fill in KS2 scores and safeguarding, medical, SEN and pastoral context until the checklist shows the handover complete.

4

Confirm and send

Confirm the record to notify the guardian, print the official handover summary, and mark it done once the receiving school has it.
