SixIntoSeven promotes collaboration as pupils move from Year 6 to Year 7. By sharing transition data and information requests in a consistent format, which is compliant with GDPR and data protection standards, all pupils will experience a personalised transition.
“The conversation between primary and secondary is crucial in helping children get the best start in Year 7.”
How it works
Collaborative agreements are made
Groups of schools, Local Authorities or MATs agree which areas of information they would like to share.
GDPR compliant gathering of data
Primary schools add information to the simple, and safe, platform which we designed with ease-of-use in mind.
Secondary schools receive consistent data
Year 7 form teachers, form tutors and SENDCos receive a profile for each child, enabling early planning and resourcing for the new cohort
Children enjoy a successful, smooth transition
Each child’s academic and pastoral needs can be met from day 1 of secondary school, which leads to future success.

Benefits of using SixIntoSeven
Teachers and school leaders
Primary teachers can share the wealth of knowledge they have built up on each child, and secondary teachers can plan accordingly in advance
Primary schools are confident that pupils will have a smooth and successful transition with their needs met
Secondary schools have all the information to plan for academic success from day 1 of welcoming a new cohort
SixIntoSeven has been designed to require low input but give you high value output - we do all the hard work, so you don’t have to!
SENDCos and DSLs
Pastoral needs are known before a child arrives at secondary school which helps all pupils, but especially those most vulnerable
Resourcing for additional needs can start early to create a personalised transition for every child and every situation
SENDCos and DSLs can add a flag to children who have more complex needs or situations, leading to a phone call or meeting prior to transition
Diagnostic statements, from academic to pastoral, give a rounded profile of each child, from the tiny details to the bigger picture
Executive HTs, MAT leads, LA teams
Early intervention and extra transition activity can be planned for those with the most need
MAT and LA teams can be assured of information which is consistent between all schools which makes oversight of transition straightforward
Last minute changes are easy to add right up until the last day of term in Year 6, as required
GDPR compliance is of the utmost importance and is at the heart of the design of SixIntoSeven. Read more in our transparency statement

The conversation between primary and secondary is crucial in helping children get the best start in Year 7.
Secondary teaching that picks up from where primary left off instils confidence. SixIntoSeven can be an important part of this conversation.

This year we don’t have the KS2 information that we normally rely on so SixIntoSeven is a real safety net for us. It means we won’t have to start what’s already been a very difficult year for new Year 7 pupils testing them because we already have really useful information on their progress.
