Year 6 Transition
Welcome to Court Fields
We’re delighted to welcome our new Year 7 students joining us in September 2026.
To parents and carers, thank you for choosing Court Fields. Your child’s learning, wellbeing and personal development are central to everything we do, and we are proud of the confidence our community has placed in us. Together we will be able to ensure that your child leaves Court Fields School prepared and ready to lead a life of choice and opportunity. Our partnership leaflet explains how we will work together to support your child throughout their time here. I look forward to meeting you all soon as we begin this exciting next stage.
