Moving Up! The transition to secondary school
This animation and accompanying teacher toolkit is aimed at supporting pupils who have recently started Year 7 or who will be preparing to transition to secondary school later in the year (Years 6 and 7). They were developed in collaboration with young people, teachers and mental health experts. The animation aims to support pupils to:
Identify potential worries associated with starting secondary school
Know they’re not alone if they are feeling worried
Talk to a trusted adult or friend if they have any concerns
Identify solutions and strategies for looking after their mental health, including self-care
