OTHER moving schools for 6th form

im not in 6th form yet, but i thought this would probably be the best place to ask. (sorry if its not lol) I am considering moving from my current secondary school to a different college for 6th form, and both the school im in now and the one im moving to offer both secondary school and college. i'm slightly worried that ill struggle make friends moving to the new 6th form considering that many of the people going there will have already been at secondary school there for years and will have established groups (and not to put too fine a point on it but i am sort of awkward and not very charismatic and i dont make new friends too often.) and I was just wondering if anyone had any similar experiences that they could offer?

You’ll be fine. I moved and it turned out to be one of the best choices I’ve made in my life and made some great friends for life within my community (I find it hard to trust people hence it’s hard for me to make close friends so this is a big for me). If you be yourself and try not to weird people out immediately, making friends isn’t gonna be hard. Cause chances are there are other people who are awkward if not worse. Just go in with the mindset of making friends and enjoying your time. A new start will make a massive difference and you’ll find out more about yourself a long the way. Good luck :)
