Secondary School
At the end of Year 6, children from St Andrew's Primary School move on to a number of different secondary schools. Choosing the right school for the next stage of your child's education is an important decision, and we encourage our families to start thinking about their options at an early stage and to visit their potential choices to get a feel for the school.
During Years 5 and 6 there are opportunities for children to get to know some of our local secondary schools. Special provision is also made to support those children who might find the move to secondary school more challenging.
Applications for secondary places in maintained schools and academies are made through the Oxfordshire Schools Admission Service: Year 7 - secondary school applications | Oxfordshire County Council
