Welcome to Year 7


Welcome to Year 7



Start your exciting journey with us – discover all that Year 7 has to offer






Your child’s journey starts here



We want to wish you a very warm welcome to Heron Hall Academy. We look forward to your child starting with us in September.

This year our transition days for the children will take place in July. There will  also be a transition evening for all parents. 

We will write to you closer to the time.

We understand that starting secondary school can be very exciting yet, daunting experience for many students.

We also want our children to have lifelong memories of the happy times they had with us, developing a love of learning, and remembering their teachers with fondness and as the role models who inspired them to reach for their dreams.





Addressing children’s whole needs while they are with us at such a key stage of their development – intellectual, emotional and physical – is critical. All children have gifts and we want them to achieve their full potential. Our role is to be bridge builders to opportunity. Excellence through equity is our goal.

Our staff understand this and work closely with the primary schools to try to make students transition into Heron Hall Academy as easy as possible.

The school website has a wealth of important and useful information, so please take the opportunity to look around. You will also find under this section a place we have created for information to hopefully make your child’s transition from primary to secondary school as smooth as possible.

There is also an email address to respond to all your queries [email protected].
