Year 6 to Year 7:
Secondary School English Foundations Course.
Summer 2026
Starting secondary school is an exciting step - but English lessons at secondary level are very different from primary school.
Students are expected to:
> Analyse texts in greater depth
>Write structured analytical response paragraphs
>Work more independently
> Use subject terminology
>Respond confidently to unfamiliar material
>Write essays
This intensive 6-day summer course is designed to bridge that gap and help students begin year & feeling confident and prepared.
