Year 6-7 Transition

Introduction

Welcome to the Marsh Academy.

At this Academy, we have a commitment to excellence. We aim for high academic standards but also foster creativity, encourage sensitivity, and courtesy towards others, develop self-motivation and a strong sense of self-worth.

The success of each student is measured in a variety of ways and the development of happy, conscientious students in a safe environment, is as important to us as academic achievement.  We aspire to prepare our students to play a leading role in the wider world.

We encourage communication between home and school, so please do not hesitate to contact us if you have concerns.  The first point of contact is through your child’s Year Team. We look forward to working in partnership with you to provide the best possible education for your child.

Please find below information on the basic organisation within the Academy and should prove invaluable as a reference - so please keep it safe.
