Hi everyone, I'm sorry for repeating what has definitely been asked before but I'm struggling to find the relevant threads!
We are thinking of moving back to the UK. Our DD(8) will join year 5 in most likely in January 2016 ( she will be 9 in late August so will be the youngest of the year). She is currently in year 3 in an Australian International school so will effectively skip all of year 4 and a term of year 5 when she starts in the UK.
Her current school have offered us the chance to put her up into year 4 now so that she at least gets some exposure to year 4 work, being with the older peer group for the rest of the year and we are considering it even though she has made some really good friends in her year 3 class.
I guess what I'm asking is if anyone has had to go through this and how did it work out?.....should we find a tutor (if we can, not easy in our country) to prepare her before we leave? I'm wondering whether I go to the UK early (not very appealing leaving DH but its only for a few months I guess) and just get her into year 5 come September rather than miss a term of it. Honest opinions appreciated!!
