A welcome letter from a current student.
It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to Southfield School for the next stage of your academic journey. It is our ambition that every student leaves Southfield as a confident and resilient individual, equipped with skills and values that enable them to contribute to society and succeed in the field they choose to pursue. We hope that this Year 6 Transition zone will support you in preparing for your September start at Southfield. We are confident that, despite the current restrictions, every new student joining us will feel supported, cared for and will be able to flourish.
We can’t wait to meet you later this year!
Dr Fordham
Head of Transition
