Abstract

The secondary school transition is considered a critical life event by practitioners and researchers alike, and the challenges presented by the pupils during this transition continues to be high-profile in educational, social and political contexts. This study focused on Year 7 pupils aged 11 to 12 years old in their first year of secondary school. Classroom observations of around 120 pupils using an open framework recording procedure offered real-time insights into the everyday lived experiences of these adolescents. The paper illustrates the skills and behaviours that children brought to their secondary school transition, and as such reveals how the transition should be perceived as both an event and a social and emotional learning process. The findings of this study highlight the challenges of flexibility and diversity within peer networks after the move to secondary school and the impact the transition can have on the pupils’ sense of self. The analysis is discussed in terms of implications for schools, practitioners and researchers with suggestions for further studies with this under-researched and vulnerable group.
“求你了,小姐,求你了!:一项关于年轻人升入中学后的社会和情感经历的观察性研究
中学的过渡被实践者和研究者认为是一个重要的人生事件,学生在这一过渡期间所面临的挑战在教育、社会和政治背景下仍然是备受瞩目的。这项研究的重点是11至12岁的七年级学生,他们是中学一年级的学生。使用开放式框架记录程序对大约120名学生的课堂观察提供了对这些青少年日常生活经历的实时见解。这篇论文阐述了孩子们在中学过渡时期的技能和行为,并以此揭示了过渡应该如何被视为一个事件和一个社会和情感学习过程。这项研究的结果强调了在升入中学后同龄人网络的灵活性和多样性的挑战,以及这种转变对学生自我意识的影响。该分析对学校、从业者和研究人员的影响进行了讨论,并提出了对这一研究不足的弱势群体进行进一步研究的建议。
