New BBC Bitesize Starting Secondary School campaign

BBC Bitesize in partnership with YoungMinds have announced their new campaign Starting Secondary School which is designed to help support the critical step of beginning Secondary school.

BBC Bitesize is hosting a range of content that you, your pupils and their parents can use to navigate the transition to Secondary school, including peer-to-peer advice from CBBC Our School stars, practical tips for parents and BBC Teach classroom clips and resources.

“Transition materials are extremely important and relevant, especially now. They carry the school playground around in their pockets, along with all the good and bad that is inherent there.” - PSHE teacher, Secondary School, Yorkshire
