Transition
New Parents’ Evening for Sept 2026 Intake
Our New Year 5 Parents’ Evening will be on Wednesday 17th June 2026 at 7.00 pm in the main school hall. You will have the opportunity to meet your child’s Year Leader, Mr Bebbington and their Tutor. Information regarding the general organisation of the school will be provided and your child’s tutor room can be viewed. The meeting will end at approximately 8.30 pm and is organised for parents/carers only (no children please).
School uniform can be purchased from The School Shop in West Moors. A selection of school uniform from them, as well as second-hand uniform will be on sale during the evening.
We believe that the transition from the First School to the Middle School is a vitally important part of your child’s education. It is hoped that you will be able to attend to hear the opportunities that will be available to your child throughout the middle years of schooling.
Transfer Day
Your child will be coming to Ferndown Middle school on Friday 26th June 2026 for transfer day, where they will have the opportunity to meet their Tutor and other children in their tutor group. Parents are asked to bring their child to the front entrance of Ferndown Middle School at 9.00 am and collect them at 2.45pm from the school hall.
Please provide your child with a packed lunch. Please note we are a nut free school. If your child is eligible for free school meals and you would like to order a hot meal on transfer day, please complete the following request form Transfer Day free school meal request. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer hot meals on transfer day if your child needs a medical special diet. Details of how to arrange this from September will be provided in the welcome brochure.
