Hi everyone. I would really appreciate some of your opinions on this issue because I am getting totally hetup about the whole thing! Basically, I have 2 dd (y1 & y2) who currently attend a small out of catchment primary school.They are both happy there and are making good progress but have no special friends.The OFSTED report (Sept. 2004) was not great; the school is very 'cosy 'and is not achieving goood standards-particularly as the pupils are from supportive, educated backgronds. Meanwhile, I teach at our large, catchment junior school which received a very good OFSTED report recently. It is in a VERY socially diverse area but academically the children perform very well.My DH and I are really struggling to know what to do for the best.........do we move our 2dd to a more challenging environment both academically and behaviourly (they are both very bright but 'sheltered') or let them remain at their current 'coasting' school?Also, how do children cope if they are at the same school as their parents? Is it better to keep us separate?! Any advice,please?
