Hi, I really can't decide what to do.
My daughter is due to start reception at the private school she's been in since she was 2. She has a severe speech disorder and so I don't think this school is going to be right for her primary education.
All the parents of children who have been in the juniours and have now left have all said the same. The nursery and reception are fantastic but from yr1 onwards if your child needs extra help then it's not the best option.
My daughter has a place at our local state school in January.
I'd love her to finnish the reception year and then change schools but this school won't hold a place open.
It seems a shame that she'll only be doing one term at her school in her new class and then leave (especially as I've just bought the uniform)
She is going to be accessed by the child development team starting in november.
I'm worried about her starting school in january, as she is very difficult to understand and therefore think she won't make friends easily. She's also still soiling herself regularly.
I'd really like to get these things under controll before she starts her new school.
The head of nursery thinks it would be a huge benefit for her to finnish reception, but is it worth losing a school place? the school isn't outstanding, but it seems nice and friendly. Would the head of nursey help me find a good school for her in yr 1?
There are several schools neerby that I'd send her to. Could I put her name on waiting lists untill a place became availabe?
I know she is doing so well at her school and she loves her new teacher.
My head tells me to take up her place in January, but my heart tells me to keep her there one more year.
I've been thinking about it so much and every time I think I've decided, I change my mind.
