Our 4 year old son is currently at preschool he only started there last September. He started late as he is very shy child and ever so emotional. Even with close family he is very shy and would never stay with them on his own he has always been like this. As he be 5 in September we applied for a school but put letter in with the form asking for him to go into the reception year which both us and his nursery teachers thought would be best for him as we don't think he is ready for first year. We explained it all in the letter but the head never took any notice not even asked to meet him so could see how bad our little boy was. Surely he must realise all kids are different.
what we would like to know if any one going or gone through the same thing and could we appeal against it.We are very worried how this is going to affect him due to his extreme shyness and not being ready for it.
