# Summer transition tasks for Year 11 to Year 12

   29 July 2026

Melksham Oak Community School is encouraging students moving from Year 11 into Year 12 to make the most of the summer break by completing a range of transition tasks designed to support their move into sixth form study. The resources are available online and provide subject-specific preparation to help students build confidence and arrive in September ready to begin their post-16 courses.

The transition programme is designed to bridge the gap between GCSE and sixth form learning, allowing students to familiarise themselves with key concepts and expectations before the start of the new academic year. By engaging with the tasks during the summer holidays, students can strengthen their subject knowledge, develop independent study skills and gain a valuable head start in their chosen areas of study.

Students joining Melksham Oak Sixth Form are encouraged to access the relevant materials for each of their subjects and complete the work ahead of September. This preparation will help ensure a smooth transition into sixth form education and support students in achieving success from the outset of their courses.

The full range of summer transition tasks can be accessed via the Melksham Oak Community School website: [View the Summer Transition Tasks](https://www.melkshamoak.wilts.sch.uk/sixth-form/summer-transition-tasks-year-11-to-year-12)
