We are trying to chose between two colleges for ds1, and would be grateful for some advice. One offers German and French from sixieme. The other ( our preferrred option as very academic ) only offers English. We speak English at home and ds is reading Alex Ryder etc like his cousins in the UK though his written English is behind. He has a good level of German having done four years in primaire.
I would like him to continue with German, but it seems ridiculous to throw away the natural advantage that he would have by dispensing with English altogether. But then, would he be wasting his time in English, and should I just do a bit with him at home myself ( am a teacher ). Or just go with the less academic option and then he can do both.
Sorry, this is a stream of consciousness. Must go to bed..
