DD is 9 and attends a junior school 2.5 miles from our house. I have a 4 yo DD with ASC and don't want her to attend the same infant school her sister did because it isn't great for SEN and the transition to junior school later on would be massively unsettling for her, plus I have two other younger children so I'd eventually have three school drop offs to do in a heavily congested town.
DD isn't excelling at school though she's above average. She has one best friend but she regularly leaves dd out and makes her really upset. DD really likes her teacher but never comes out of school particularly happy or enthusiastic about her day; she often complains it's boring and monotonous. One of the schools I'm applying for for her sister has a space for her too and I've asked how she feels about moving school but she is set against it. I've explained it's impossible to do both school runs so she'd have to go to before school club and asked what her objections are but she says she just doesn't want to move.
I can't really afford to pay for before school club and the only school close enough to her junior school for her sister to go to is the infant school she went to. Aibu to move her against her wishes?
