Year 6 Taster Days

Year 6 Taster Day 2024 - Friday 4th October

Come and experience a day at Lakelands Academy. 

Explore the whole school to become familiar with our surroundings, try out some of our exciting lessons, meet our caring staff and sample the food in our fun and friendly dining room. It is also a great opportunity to meet our current students and make new friends.

At Lakelands, close links are maintained with all our local primary schools to ensure as smooth a transition as possible. We have a Year 6 Taster Day every year for prospective students to spend the day here prior to the application deadline at the end of October. 

All of the year 6 students leave Lakelands at the end of the Taster Day feeling excited, happy and reassured.

Unfortunately, our Taster Day have no relevance to admissions procedures and the allocation of places. This is carried out by the Shropshire Admissions team. Our Taster Day and Open Day / Evening aids parents and pupils decisions regarding their Secondary School applications. They do not give any guarantee of a place being offered to your child.
