Year 6 Summer School

Year 6 Summer School happens in the first full week of the summer holiday. We find that this experience truly helps the students with their transition to life at secondary school.

After Summer School 2025, new parents said:

‘Summer School was a fantastic way for our child to grow in confidence, build independence…and make new friends. The activities on offer were absolutely fantastic and we are extremely grateful that Alcester Academy offers such a brilliant scheme.’

‘After Summer School, my daughter said that she is excited to start at Alcester Academy in September. What better endorsement!’

‘This was a brilliant opportunity to meet teachers and familiarise my son with the school.’

‘From a parent perspective, I think the Summer School was an exceptional opportunity.’

‘We were delighted with Summer School and very grateful. It helped my daughter with anxiety and she definitely feels more confident to start in September.’

‘Really impressed with the level of care and safety precautions.’

‘Each day my daughter came home buzzing and I could see her confidence increasing through the week.‘
