Transition Information for Admission into Year 7 September 2024

Students transitioning from primary to secondary school can be an exciting but also an anxious experience. At Bedford Academy we aim to ensure that this process is as smooth as possible for all students, whatever primary school they are coming from.

All the communications and documents we will be sending out to parents/carers and students will be available on our website.

We have set up an email address just for our new Year 7 families and students. This is in place so that they can ask us specific questions about anything that excites, worries or concerns them. They can email us any questions, big or small to [email protected] and we will reply within 48 hours.
