Dear all,
This section of the website is for all our Year 6 Parents/Carers and students. I hope you are well and excited about this next step.
Kirkby Stephen Grammar School is committed to making the transition into secondary school as positive as possible and we are here to help you.
Year 6 students, by now should have started to think about starting their new school and as the year goes on will be feeling a mixture of excitement and nerves. That’s perfectly normal! I want you to know that we are excited about you joining us and are already making plans to welcome the class of September 2023 to your new school. The closing date for applications is at the end of October. Last year KSGS was oversubscribed. This year projected numbers are slightly above our intake, However, I am hopeful that all applicants will get the place they want.
Thankfully, school has now returned to a new normal. KSGS continues to keep everyone safe, why still offering the best care and education for all.
We will keep this webpage updated with information for you so that you can start to feel a part of our school. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via the school admin email and mark it for the attention of Mr O’Doherty. admin@ksgs.cumbria.sch.uk
Regards
John O’Doherty
KS 2/3 transition coordinator
Director of Learning and Pastoral Support Years 7 and 8
