With the new school year around the corner, the start of September brings a big change to thousands of students who will be making the transition from a primary to a secondary school. After months of hard work preparing for their 11+ examinations, our Year 7 students step into the next stage of their academic career as secondary school pupils.
As part of the Educational Q&A Series, our Senior Tutor, Vivek Gathani, published a video sharing his advice about making the most of the experience and supporting your son or daughter through this exciting - albeit sometimes daunting - moment of their school life.
Having worked at Haberdashers' Boys' School for four years as a teacher, Year 7 form tutor and deputy housemaster, Vivek is closely familiar with the day-to-day opportunities and challenges the students face in a new school.

We would like to wish all those starting the year in a new school the best of luck! Secondary school has a wealth of exciting opportunities to offer you, both academically and in its extracurricular pursuits.
We hope you enjoy this part of your school journey. We can't wait to hear your first impressions!
