I teach at a v. nice village primary school. If ds came to my school (he's nearly 3 so we're talking 2010) I'd feel pretty happy about the experience and education that he would receive. However, the village is a bit cliquey and I'm not sure how other parents would react, and how I would cope with being a parent and a teacher.
Up to now I've always been anti working at the same school that dc attend, because it might cause them probs with friends and make them feel like mum's always watching. Also worry for myself a bit, that I might be a bit too interested in what he's doing (ie cross parent/teacher boundary without meaning to)
Trouble is, we live in a town about 6 miles away, catchment schools aren't great and it crosses a county boundary which means we wouldn't share all the same holidays.
Anyone got any experience / words of wisdom about this? Seems a bit early to think about it but if we are going to apply to my school I'd want to start him in the local pre school rather than one in our town, and I need to sort that out soonish.

How will it affect ds if he comes to the school I teach at?
