Welcome to our Year 6 Transition area. At William Howard School we aim to make the transition to Year 7 as smooth as possible. Please read through the information available here and do not hesitate to contact Mrs Buckley (email: kbuckley@williamhoward.cumbria.sch.uk), if you have any further questions. We look forward to meeting you in September.

Our Year 6 Transition Day will take place on Monday, 30th June 2025 for Year 6 pupils joining us in September 2025.
