Welcome to King's Academy Ringmer

Once you have had confirmation from East Sussex County that you have received a place at our school, the 'transition' phase will begin. This is an exciting time for both families as the school.

Our aim is to make your child's transition to secondary school as smooth as possible. Therefore, communication is key. We start by gathering as much information about your child as possible and will send you the admissions form in early March. Once you return this, you will have officially accepted the place.

In the forthcoming months, our admissions, pastoral, and learning support teams will be making contact with your child's primary school to collate all the extra information and knowledge to support your child at King's Academy Ringmer. 

This webpage has been created to provide you with all the information you need as a family to prepare for secondary school. Below you will find a Transition Information Booklet. This was created a few years ago, but it is packed with relevant information, help and tips for everyone. During the pandemic we were unable to hold our Transition Days or Meet the Tutor evening, so we produced the videos below. We wanted to keep them on this page as you can remind yourself of the school's layout and also the subject introductions are still relevant and all the teachers are very much still with us, so it's good to get to know them too. 

We will send you regular updates and information in due course about our Transition Days. In the meantime, enjoy the videos and if you need to contact us via email: ringmer.transition@kingsacademies.uk
