Please find below the letters sent to parents/carers of pupils joining Lawn Manor Academy in September 2023.
We send regular communication, so please check back regularly for any updates for pupils starting in September 2024.
Year 6 Transfer Days will be:
Tuesday 2nd July 2024 and Wednesday 3rd July 2024
High standards of uniform and presentation are expected of all pupils at Lawn Manor Academy and the school unashamedly takes pride in this.
There are good reasons for this.
A smart uniform helps to create a sense of community; it also removes distraction and competition which may be caused by an individual’s style of dress, and allows pupils to concentrate on learning.
The Dress Code and Behaviour policies are clear that there are no exceptions to these expectations and they explain the consequences that will be put in place should a pupil not meet the requirements.
Uniform Direct will be running a ‘Pop-up Uniform Shop‘ which will take place at Lawn Manor Academy on Saturday 1st July (9.30am-12.30pm) in West Manor Hall (via Falmouth Grove).
*Please note that Uniform Direct have reported that some customers are having issues accessing their website via iPhones. If you experience such issues, please visit the Uniform Direct website via a desktop computer or laptop*
The transfer process is managed by the Transfer & Inclusion Coordinator, Becci Benson, and the member of the Senior Leadership Team with responsibility is Mr Langdown, Deputy Headteacher. Lawn Manor Academy is proud of the positive links that have been developed with our colleagues in our cluster of primary schools.
Schools in the Lawn Manor Academy cluster are:
In addition, most Year 7 intakes have children from a further 20 primary schools from across Swindon.
Key Stage 2 pupils and their parents receive a full package of support to help them upon transfer to Key Stage 3, including:
It is vitally important that significant information is shared between the primary and secondary schools regarding pupils’ backgrounds, social and emotional wellbeing, academic achievement, gifts and talents, Special Educational Needs, medical concerns, and language acquisition for EAL pupils; this information forms the foundation for many basic school functions when the pupils start in Year 7 and is given high priority by Lawn Manor Academy and our colleagues in primary schools.
To order Uniform for September 2023 our uniform company has suggested to place the order by 31st July 2023.
