Here’s to a great year for all TY students and the TY Team.

Transition year can be a fantastic experience if you take part and push yourself to try new things.There are a number of benefits to taking part in TY:

TY gives students a fantastic opportunity to gain useful work experience, offering students an insight into the real working world.
As well as work experience, TY students are encouraged to take up new skills or hobbies that are of interest to them. As TY students have quite a lot of flexibiliy, it is the perfect opportunity to learn something new and develop a new skill.
Transition Year helps teens to build confidence and mature into young adults. The extra year gives students a chance to grow up a little, with lots of new and exciting experiences.
Friendships blossom during Transition Year. Activities tend to place an emphasis on teamwork and friendship, allowing students to get to know one another even better than before. Trips away and fun activities allow students to meet new friends and build on current friendships.
