High School readiness aims to help students prepare for entering high school. We will explore:

- Engaging with peers and making friends
- Understanding timetables
- Why you have so many different teachers
- Exploring different school maps and how to use them
- Planning for homework/making timetables to do everything you need to do at home
- Provide a safe space to discuss concerns, share ideas and build confidence
