Joining Us in Year 7
At The Hurlingham Academy, we understand that starting secondary school can be both exciting and daunting, so we have a thorough and comprehensive transition programme for all children moving up from primary school. Our staff work closely with primary schools to ensure every students’ transition into Year 7 is as smooth as possible.
All of the important information about the academy and starting secondary school can be found on the parent and student pages of the website - click on the links in the top right hand corner that show the PARENTS and STUDENTS portal. For parents we've posted term dates, newsletters, the Parent Handbook and more. For students; Show My Homework, Hegarty Maths, the House System amongst other useful items. Please familiarise yourself with these areas of the web site along with checking this page for additional updated content.
