Transition Year

    TY 2025/26

    The Transition Year Programme aims to promote the personal, social, educational and vocational development of students and to prepare them for their role as autonomous, participative and responsible members of society.

    Transition Year at The King’s Hospital School is a ‘portfolio based’ course. The portfolio is a systematic collection of work that shows individual effort, progress and achievement in all areas of school life. It acknowledges all aspects of the TY curriculum and provides a comprehensive record of students’ efforts.

    The curriculum is learning-led rather than exam driven which allows for assessment to take place in various ways, including the oral presentation of the portfolio in April/May of each year. This allows the students to self-assess and to set many of their own goals for the year.
