INDUCTION

The transfer of pupils from Primary to Post Primary can be a daunting experience. In order that new pupils can settle into Dunluce School in a confident way, a successful induction programme has operated for a number of years.

January           All pupils of transfer age are invited to visit the school with their parents on Open Night, Tuesday 10 January 2012 at 7.30pm

June                Pupils transferring to Dunluce School in September are invited to the school for part of a day. They meet the First Form Year Teacher, and are shown around the school.  Important aspects of school life are explained and pupils can ask questions about their new school.  Pupils receive a Pre-Entry Booklet which includes a uniform list and names of uniform suppliers.

September      On the first day of the new school year only Year 8 pupils are in school. For two days Year 8 pupils stay with their Form Teacher and, by working through a specially produced ‘First Days’ Booklet,become familiar with the school and their class friends.  On the third day pupils commence their normal classes.
