Things are bad with school. And we have three choices: Home ed, grin and suffer, move to new school. The child involved does not do change. Hates it with a passion so new school is a bit tricky. Not sure I have the nerves to hang on in the current school.
The key issues for removing to home ed are school specific and the primary system itself. Secondary system will be more agreeable in its structure to the child. Home ed has been considered on numerous occasions but not acted upon previously as the child in question requested to stay in school despite there being problems and there has been ongoing discussions for years. However, it has got to the point where I might go against the child's wishes due to the seriousness of my concerns.
Having spoken to the preferred high school, they suggested that we check the impact on the choice of high school. School is over subscribed but we are firmly in the catchment area. School does take a large number of students from outside the area so generally those in the school system (yr6), in the catchment area are pretty much guaranteed a place. School said that should we chose to home ed for y6 that they would advise us to check for any impact on the way the school place would be allocated so as not to unnecessarily do us out of the place that we would like.
Has anyone any advice on this matter? Especially the route into a preferred high school from home ed.
