Transition from primary to secondary school is a very important issue for most secondary languages departments, now more so than ever, given the very mixed, yet significant, primary languages provision in our schools. I recommend visiting the CILT website for some excellent work on transition (see Links section of this site) and using the KS2 and renewed KS3 frameworks when planning for transition. This presentation is one I prepared to give at The Language Show in 2009, but which was never given due to swine flu! It doesn't look at specific transition projects but is an attempt to look at key teaching strands and their progression from KS2 into Y7.
