Starting a new academic year without a clear understanding of pupils’ strengths and gaps in learning can slow progress and make early teaching less targeted. These English Transition Profiles are designed to solve that problem - giving receiving teachers a concise, structured overview of what pupils know and, crucially, what they need next.

From EYFS to KS2, the templates capture key information in reading, phonics, writing, spelling and handwriting, highlighting both strengths and priority areas. Instead of sifting through books and data, teachers can quickly identify whole-class needs, key groups and immediate teaching priorities.

The result? Clear, confident planning from day one. Teachers can deliver more focused lessons, address gaps early, and ensure strong progress from the start of the academic year, while maintaining continuity in English teaching across year groups.

A practical, time-saving tool that supports effective academic transition between year groups.
