Primary‑secondary school transitions mark a pivotal developmental milestone in children’s and their supporters’ lives. This accessible guide distils international research and practical insights into a reader‑riendly resource focused on how parents, carers and teachers can support children’s emotional wellbeing during this significant period of change.

Focussing on supporting the supporters, Supporting Emotional Wellbeing During Primary-Secondary School Transitions addresses some of the most frequently asked questions about how we can best support our children during this key transitional phase, as well as how we can help them navigate amongst other social, academic, environmental and personal transitions. Following an effective Q&A structure and a ‘dip in and out’ approach, chapters discuss topics such as puberty and related developmental aspects, support networks, the child’s voice, additional support needs and much more. This book includes illustrations and real‑ife vignettes to help explain some complex concepts and scenarios.

Written by two transitions experts, this essential resource is for parents looking for straightforward guidance on questions related to their child’s primary‑econdary school transitions. With tips for teachers as well as parents and children, this may also be of interest to educators and school support professionals such as family liaison officers, educational psychologists and teaching assistants.

Despite variations of educational systems, when transitions in education occur, the pedagogical challenges that teachers and pupils undergo are quite similar across the globe. Transitions are phases in which pupils, peer groups and teachers have to renegotiate and rebuild their learning environment in the educational context. These various transitions in students'' learning paths significantly impact on schools'' everyday life. This volume explores transitions at all stages of educational progression, i.e., nursery to primary, primary to secondary, and secondary to post-school. It also examines these transitions across a variety of countries and types of schools. Educational Transitions provides up-to-date literature, research and theoretical constructs that help readers understand the issues, social-emotional-psychological dimensions, and evidence-based possible interventions to support an individual through these educational transitions. It also allows scholars, teachers, and students to critically analyse how lessons learned from one country can be adapted for other countries'' educational systems.

International students experience multiple and multi-dimensional educational and life transitions: moving to a new country, moving to a new educational system and moving to higher educational degree programmes. Within these transitions, they experience differences in the social and organisational cultures, languages, and interpersonal expectations, realities and relationships. Their transitions also lead to, and interact with, transitions of professionals, home students and their families.

Multi-dimensional Transitions of International Students to Higher Education provides up-to-date literature, research and theoretical constructs that underpin international students’ transitions to Higher Education. This book will help you to understand the opportunities, issues, social-emotional-psychological dimensions and evidence-based interventions that are vital to support an individual through these educational and life transitions. Split into four sections, topics include:

This book is essential reading for professionals, students and policy makers and provides significant research insights to academics and researchers in the area of education, psychology and sociology.

This book showcases the quality work that Latin American researchers have done on transition to school in Latin American countries by offering the English-speaking world, first-hand access to some Latin American transitions research, practices, and policies. This book shows the work carried out in countries such as Brazil, Chile, Cuba, and Mexico with regards to the way in which the transition to primary school is experienced from different stakeholders'' perspectives, and how Latin American educational policies and cultural practices shape such an important process for stakeholders. This book was importantly framed by the COVID-19 pandemic which placed the world in a global health emergency, and it is our hope that this book will trigger future international collaborations between researchers, policy makers, and practitioners interested in transitions which could help produce a wealth of empirical evidence to inform educational policies and transitions practices across the world. Building networks where diverse experiences are valued and respected, as well as analysed, can help provide a platform that supports educators and researchers as they continue their work and branch out in new and challenging directions.
