Supporting our P7 Transition Pupils move to Post-Primary

4th Jun 2020

Today our P7 pupils received their letters confirming what Post -Primary school they will be attending.

Parents, this is the time to reassure them, that they will be ok.

Here at Jigsaw we traditionally would have been delivering 'Transition support' for our pupils in school now but due to the current climate we had to adopt a new approach, offering virtual support for parents via a zoom session, looking at "how to support your child's emotional wellbeing and build their confidence to thrive in secondary school". I've attached a flyer with further information and how to register.

In the meantime I've also attached a lovely quote from A.A. Milne which I would love you to share with our pupils to provide reassurance to any that may need it.

Please contact me if you need any 1-1 support at this time.
