EDUCATION TO UNDERSTAND THE WORLD & CHANGE IT FOR THE BETTER

Transition to TALLIS

Due to COVID-19 and school closures our Transition arrangements will be a bit different this year. Below you will find a variety of resources to support you with transition to Thomas Tallis School. We recorded Mrs Roberts' Headstart Day talk last year and we have created a booklet to support SEND students (both below). Scroll down to find some responses to Frequently Asked Questions.

If you have any concerns about your transition to Tallis, please contact our permanent Head of Year 7, Ms Jo Rawlings: jrawlings@thomastallis.org.uk
