Welcome and Enrolment for September 2020
Welcome to our new Year 7 students
A warm welcome to Prendergast School. We are delighted that you will be joining us in September 2020. We are looking forward to meeting you!
These are challenging times. Whilst schools have been closed, many of you have been completing home learning. Thank you for taking care with social distancing and, as a result, helping to protect lives. We have been incredibly impressed by the generosity, compassion and kindness that has been shown by our community during these times.
Well done for everything you have done to stay safe and keep positive.
Because of the unique situation this year, our transition and enrolment activities are taking place online.

About you
Our online enrolment and induction is where you can tell us all the details about yourselves and your family.
We have sent you a link by email to complete our online enrolment and induction form. This is so that we can make sure we have all your details correct when you join. For instance, this is where you can tell us if you like to use a preferred name and you should make sure we have all the contact and other information we need.
We will ask you to complete our online enrolment and some additional forms to give us some of the more detailed information about you.
- The link to our online enrolment form is sent in an email.
- You can find our Additional forms here.
Please complete your online enrolment by the deadline we have given you in the email.
Working together
As part of our induction, you are asked to carefully read each of our agreements. You and your parents/carers are asked in your online enrolment to confirm you agree to these when you join the school and they will last for all the years you are enrolled with us. Make sure you and your parents/carers keep a copy. These are all included in our Welcome Handbook. You can also click on the links to read or download each separate agreement below:
- Home-School Agreement [pdf]
- Learning Resources Centre (Library) Contract [pdf]
- Use of ICT Agreement [pdf]
We can't wait to hear all about you during the transition period and to welcoming you as a future member of our Prendergast community in September 2020.
By working together, we look forward to sharing your successes and achievements over the next few years.
