Preparation and publication of first Transition PlansE+W

6.—(1) Subject to paragraph (4), the first Transition Plan for a secondary school and each feeder primary school of that secondary school must be published on or before the beginning of the publication school year.

(2) In this regulation, “the publication school year” means the school year of the secondary school immediately following the one at the beginning of which pupils of the feeder primary schools first transferred to the secondary school from those schools (as feeder primary schools), or the 2007/2008 school year (whichever is the later).

(3) The first pupils to which a first Transition Plan applies are those pupils of each feeder primary school who expect to transfer from the feeder primary school to the secondary school in the school year of the secondary school immediately following the publication school year.

(4) This regulation does not apply where there is already a Transition Plan for a secondary school and an existing feeder primary school or schools of that secondary school which falls to be reviewed under regulation 7(1)(a) (following a “new primary school” becoming a feeder primary school of that secondary school).

(5) Work on drawing up a first Transition Plan must begin in sufficient time for the plan to be published on the date on which it is required to be published under this regulation.
