I've already posted about my concerns regarding putting my kids into school for 1-3 terms whilst we spend a year in France. Mine have always been home-ed, and I'm concerned about the double whammy about going from HE into a rigid school system, AND a foreign language simultaneously.
Apart from my eldest DD really wanting to try school, the only reason I'd send them to school is to facilitate their gaining some fluency in French, which is a large part of our reason for going out there (my dh's family is French, but he hasn't really spoken French to the children )
If anyone knows of any home-educating families with children of primary age (my DDs will be 8 and 6, my DSs 4 and 2) anywhere near Montpellier/South-Eastern France, I'd be really glad to know of them - even just that they exist! But if anyone was available to answer queries/allay fears about the dreaded 'socialisation', that would be fantastic.
Thanks in advance.
