Primary Transition Liaison

Primary Liaison Transition Team

Our Liaison Team works in collaboration with primary staff and parents to ensure we provide students and parents with the key information they will need to make the decision to come to Armthorpe.

We get to know students (and many parents) before they become part of the Armthorpe family so, when they do join us they feel happy, confident, and ready to learn. Parents can be assured of a close working relationship between home and the academy.

We have been pleased to host a range of exciting primary liaison events over the last few years and welcome potential students to Armthorpe.

Currently, our focus is to engage with Y6 students and parents considering Armthorpe for September 2025. Please contact us should you wish to discuss any aspect of your child's future at Armthorpe.

A dedicated team of staff are already working on a range of primary liaison events for the year ahead, starting this term.

Our partner primary schools are:

Tranmoor Primary School
Shaw Wood Academy
Southfield Primary School
Our Lady of Sorrows

Although the majority of our students join us from our partner primary schools, we are always pleased to welcome students from other primary schools in Doncaster, the UK, and even other parts of the world.

Parents of children in all primary schools are welcome to apply for places. For more information and to apply for a place online https://fis.doncaster.gov.uk/Synergy/Parents/default.aspx
