How to Support Children Moving School

This new addition to LDA's best selling 'How to...' series is a practical guide to supporting children and young people making transitions at all stages of their school lives, whether they are moving within or between schools, or to sixth-form college or away from home. When educational transitions are managed effectively, pupils can maximise the time and effort they put into the business of learning, rather than using that same energy in dealing with orientation, friendship and learning-style issues. With sections on understanding transitions, creating a Personal Learning Profile, and how to plan and run transition events, as well as a wide range of inclusive activities, this book will give you everything you need to give pupils the best possible chance of success.
