Transitioning from Junior to Senior School is a watershed moment in a child’s journey to maturity and independence. Furthermore, transitioning from a smaller school where everyone knows each other to a larger environment where students are taught by several teachers in multiple rooms might provide issues.
At RIS, we feel it is critical to thoroughly prepare children for these transitions so that they have the best opportunity of making a seamless and confident transition, focusing on both the skill sets necessary and the possibilities that such a move brings.
This prepares children for secondary school’s increased expectations on independent learning and time management.
