Joining the Senior School
New Pupils' Day
We make every effort to ensure that all new pupils joining LVS Ascot feel comfortable and confident in their transition into senior school life.
We invite all new pupils to a ‘new pupils' day’ towards the end of the Summer Term before they start with us in September.
Pupils meet their tutors, Head of House and most importantly, other students in their Tutor Group and Year. The children have time to play “get to know you” games and familiarise themselves with the school grounds, school handbook and general information about the school day and life at LVS Ascot. While the children are with their tutors, parents have time to view and order school uniform from the suppliers stall, enquire and book places on school coaches and find out more information about musical lessons and instrumental hire. There is valuable time to chat to staff and other parents about any previously unanswered questions and queries.
Induction & Taster Days
In the last week of term, all new Year 7 pupils are invited for an induction day during the school week where they have the opportunity to follow the school timetable and experience a number of lessons. New pupils are assigned a Year 10 mentor who will help them especially during the first few weeks as they get know their way around.
For new pupils joining the Senior School in other years, there are opportunities to come into school for taster days prior to starting and buddies and mentors are allocated.
Pupils' Handbook
As well as all the information and reassurance that is gained from our induction programme a look through the pupil handbook will also answer many of those niggling questions.
