About the CPD course
This Oxplore Teach module looks at the impact of transition from primary to secondary school on learners’ engagement with education; development of academic self-concept and emotional well-being. As research shows that young people from backgrounds of socio-economic disadvantage may be especially vulnerable to becoming disengaged from education at this time; this module suggests some tips and strategies that teachers and other educators could use to support these pupils.
