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 2nd July with a parents event during the evening. We are planning summer transition activities for every student in August. More information on this will be sent out in the Summer term.

Parents & carers will receive an email during this half term with their Arbor login information and guidance, you will then be able to update information on your child/ren.
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 [email protected]
Short assignments and more information will be added over the coming months, including:
Hello everyone. My name is Mrs Hodson-Evans and I am the KS2 to KS3 Transition Lead at your new high school, South Wirral High. I am proud to be welcoming you and your family into our school community where we look forward to celebrating you, your progress and successful learning.
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 2nd July and I look forward to visiting lots of you at your primary schools too.
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.
Victoria Goode
