Transferring to Secondary School

As a school we have very close links with William Howard School in Brampton. However, some of our pupils also transfer to other secondary schools such as Queen Elizabeth Grammar School in Penrith.

All secondary school places must be applied for by the end of October, in the year before your child is due to start at their secondary school. Further details can be found here
