Dear parent/carer,
A very warm welcome to all our new South Wirral High School students, and their families, who will be joining us in September. We are very excited to meet you all to welcome you to your new school.
We have set up this web-based resource containing some information you may find useful. Year 7 Welcome Day this year will be held on Thursday 6th July with a parents event during the evening. We are planning for summer transition activities for every student from Monday 21st to Wednesday 23rd August. To register your child onto the transition week, complete this form.

Parents & carers – please make sure you complete the linked Data Collection form as soon as possible. This should only take 10-15 minutes and includes information on emergency contacts, medical conditions, trip consent and more.
We have set up a course on our virtual learning platform, Google Classroom, for students to access a range of activities and information for transition. Keep an eye on the page for regular updates and the opportunity to speak to teachers before you join us. You will be receiving your login details through the post, but if you need any help – email hello@southwirral.wirral.sch.uk
Short assignments and more information will be added over the coming months, including:
Every child matters at our high school and we are aspirational in everything you do. We want you to be a successful leader, be organised, show resilience and initiative, which means you become outstanding characters and the best version of yourself. There are lots of exciting opportunities before you join us in September, including virtual activities on Google Classroom, the Welcome Day on Wednesday 5th July and I look forward to visiting lots of you at your primary schools too.
Hi everyone, My name is Claire and I am the Student Welfare Officer here at school. I support the House Progress Leaders and the teachers to make sure everyone enjoys their time at South Wirral. I also work closely with the Local Authority, CAMHS, and Social Services. If you have any questions about the transition to secondary school specifically in relation to these outside agencies then please send me a message here.
At South Wirral High School, we believe that all pupils are entitled to an inclusive education that allows them to achieve their full potential. Every individual is encouraged to challenge themselves, work creatively in collaboration with others and most importantly, achieve the sense of accomplishment that comes from the determined effort to succeed in learning.
My team and I are committed to supporting all students, especially those with individual needs. We have high aspirations for our young people and support them so they can achieve excellence, but also have the necessary adaptations and reasonable adjustments to ensure the best achievements, both academically and individually.
Please contact myself, or Ms Fidal (Assistant SENDCo) if you have any questions as we’re here to help.
