7th Jan 2026

Information received from the Department of Education on Weds. 7th January 2026 to be shared with Primary 6 families.

ADVICE ON THE POST-PRIMARY TRANSFER PROCESS FOR PARENTS OF CHILDREN IN P6

As has been the practice over the last number of years the Department of Education has produced a document providing advice to parents of children in P6 on the post-primary transfer process. The purpose of this document is to ensure that parents receive timely information about the range of issues they need to take into account when making important decisions about the next stage in their child’s education.

The document is available to download from the Department’s website at the following link and I would be grateful if you could share this with P6 parents.
