Induction Day - outline of the day

The purpose of Induction Day is to show students what life at Tanbridge House School is like and to make the transfer to secondary school as easy as possible.

On arrival, prefects and senior staff will be stationed at all entrances in order to to direct students to the Main Hall- you will not need to escort your child to the hall.

Students will have all lessons in their new Tutor Groups and staff and student prefects will be on hand before school, between lessons and at break times to help and direct the year 6s as needed.
