It's not really a thread about the pros/cons of boarding. I know people have very strong views on it.
For us it was about finding the right school and it meaning she would have to board to be able to go there. For others it might have been the other way around, wanting/needing your DC to board and having to find the right school.
Either way, it's a big deal. We spent so long working towards entrance tests, wondering if she would be accepted. It always seemed so far away. But now, here we are, almost end of term, and I'm dreading next year. I will miss her so much, I'm worried about how she will feel, cope with travelling and questioning- are we doing the right thing?
I don't really doubt that we are but DD is my youngest, the last child at home ( other 2 grown up now) and I just feel overwhelmed with it all. Anyone else going through this?
