Transition Day

Welcome to Reddish Vale High School. 

Before you join us in September, we will invite you to visit our school for a Transition Day.

Transition Day is an opportunity for you meet your form tutor, teachers and new friends. You will also spend time getting to know the layout of the school and the important information you will need to know before you start the new and exciting next chapter of your education.

Below is some important information about the Transition Day. If you have any concerns or queries, please contact our Transition Team on 0161 477 3544, or alternatively you can email transition@reddish.stockport.sch.uk
