For various reasons one of my children is already at a different school to the other two (all first half of primary). Dd1 and DS are in the local state primary and DD2 is in the local prep. We've already been considering moving DD1 as she's been struggling socially and we think the prep might be more suited to her.
I've just found out that the state school is only planning on (obviously this could change before sept) two days a week in sept to be able to maintain social distancing. The Prep seem to be confident that with their smaller classes they will go back full time for all the kids.
I'm self employed and can be flexible with my timings so childcare isn't really an issue but I am struggling to get them to take me seriously as a teacher so I'm not sure how much they'll get done on their off days even with more teacher input.
I'm tempted to move both DS and DD1 to the prep in September - DS has said he doesn't want to go but he's also said he doesn't DD1 to go and I suspect he's love it as he'll be more academically stretched and he tends to mess around because he's bored in his current class.
So AIBU to move them both across? I guess this is more of a wwyd but YABU= don't move them just because of Covid. YANBU = move them so they get a full education in sept.
