young peoples lives. The text considers pupils, parents and

core subjects, English, maths and science. Section two of the book
offers specific advice, illustrated with examples of good practice,
on how the needs of children in transition may be met by teachers

taken a step further with guidance on setting up school networks
and liaison processes.
