How do you introduce final year primary pupils to life in secondary school? We follow the work of three schools in Brighton and their different approaches to induction. Two of the schools have traditional induction days with the children enjoying a taste of life in secondary school, using the IT suites, science labs and drama studios. The third has done away with the induction day, replacing it with a 'meet the mentor' event for parents and students together. As we see the children signing shirts, giving the teachers goodbye presents and celebrating the end of their life at junior school with a school disco, it seems clear that the transfer to secondary is a rite of passage for young people. The film includes contributions from Professor Maurice Galton from the Faculty of Education at Cambridge University and Professor Barbara McGilchrist of the Institute of Education.
