Raising the participation age to 18: 'Moving up' booklet will help Year 7s

Children transferring to secondary school this September will be the first who will need to continue in education or training until they are 18, following the passage of the Education and Skills Act last year. A short informal booklet – Moving up – will be available from September to help new Year 7s with the transition, and explain the choices ahead.

The DCSF produced a similar booklet for the young people who moved to Year 7 in September 2008. This new version incorporates feedback from children, parents and schools.

These booklets can help support induction programmes and will be available in the first week of term, along with materials for use in the classroom.
