We all wish to see your children happily settled at The St Lawrence Academy and we hope to provide a range of support throughout Year 6 to make the move to secondary school as easy as possible.

The following area of our website contains the information we think will help your child prepare for starting at The St Lawrence Academy in September. We will be adding information to this area over the next few weeks so please keep revisiting this area.

If you do require any information then please do not hesitate to contact the SEND Team via our referral form.
