Supporting transition to Year 7
Information supporting department schools to understand incoming Year 7 students’ reading and numeracy skills.
Support for high school transition
Department high schools have access to literacy and numeracy data from the Year 6 Check-in assessments to support students as they move into Year 7. This information helps teachers identify learning needs and provide students with support during the transition to high school.
Staff can access more detailed information around literacy and numeracy support at Supporting student transition (staff only).
