SECONDARY TRANSFER 2025 ENTRY
SECONDARY TRANSFER 2025 ENTRY
At St. Michael’s we view the transition to secondary school as a major event in our pupils’ educational journey. It is one where parents and pupils begin the process of visiting new schools and thinking ahead to the future.
The whole experience can be a daunting one but we hope with the advice and guidance we give as a school we can alleviate some of the stresses involved. The positive impact of having these robust procedures in place eases the transition from Key Stage 2 through to Key Stage 3 and supports parents in making choices for their children.
Please click on the links below to access information relating to secondary transfer.
Here are some informative links that will help parents through the secondary school process.
Information on admissions for 2025 will continue to be added on this page as up to date information becomes available.

For Children who have an Education, Health, Care Plan and are in Year 5
Children with EHCP do not apply for secondary schools through the typical application process. Instead, the Special Needs Assessment Section (SNAS) ask you for your preferences and then consult with schools on your behalf. Pupils with an EHCP do not have to sit the Wandsworth Secondary Admissions test.
Please see the attached document for further information: Moving from Primary to Secondary with an EHCP
Reference Charges for Independent School Applications
Reference Charges for Independent School Applications
Parents are asked to note: Each application takes precious time and resources away from the core teaching responsibilities and therefore we request a contribution of £30 for each individual reference / assessment report to the school via ParentMail which is in line with other local primary schools. Parents will be notified when payment needs to be made upon receipt of a reference request from an independent school.
