Exciting News for Educators Supporting Armed Forces Families!

We are pleased to share the launch of the new ‘Between Education Systems’ Transition Toolkit. A valuable new resource created by Defence Children’s Services (DCS) to support armed forces children moving between different UK education systems.

Developed in collaboration with educators, stakeholders, and partners across each of the UK nations, this toolkit is designed to help both sending and receiving schools manage positive transitions before, during, and after a student’s move.

What the resources contain
👉 Key transitions actions for schools and educators, linked to curated practical resources
👉 Accessible information about each nations’ education system, curriculums and qualification frameworks
👉 Routes to network with schools across the UK

Transitions between education systems can bring real challenges—curriculum shifts, qualification changes, differing support structures, and more.

Next steps:
✔ Explore the new Transition Resource via Between Education Systems Transition Toolkit
