Early Years to Primary 1
There are many opportunities for pupils from the Early Years Centre to interact with teachers, staff and pupils from the primary school. Pre-school children take part in school celebrations, special events and infant assemblies within the school.
In the pre-school year a transition record of progress and achievement is compiled for every child. This record spans two years of development from pre-school through to the end of primary one. This record enables the primary one teacher to have a clear view of your child’s development, providing them with an appropriate curriculum for your child from the first day of primary one.

Primary 7 to S1
The transfer from primary to secondary school has great significance for many children- a new school brings new routines, new friends, lots of teachers, new responsibilities and expectations. Academic demands also change- secondary school means a new curriculum taught by a range of subject specialists.
To make the transition from Barassie Primary to Marr College as seamless as possible the pupils have many opportunities and activities offered to them.
Pupils are normally transferred from primary to secondary school between the ages of 11 ½ and 12 ½ so that they will have the opportunity to complete at least four years of secondary education.
