What is an all-through school, and how does it benefit young people?
An all-through school is one school located on a single site that has an intake of students aged 3-19 instead of a separate primary and secondary school. This one school would have a single headteacher and governing body. An advantage of teaching young people in an all-through school is that they can develop through their whole school life at a pace that suits their ability and it also supports young people in a happy, successful and smooth move from primary to secondary education.
