Hi there, we are moving to France in a few years and my DS will be 9 or 10 by then. I currently home school and wondered if anyone had any info about doing this in France. We will be going to Toulouse.
I have found a few websites and groups and know that I need to register every year and I will get checked on like here in England. I know they ask you to cover certain subjects too although they don't expect you to follow the curriculum as such.
My main question is does your child have to sit an exam to check they're on track? I know if there are two unsatisfactory visits they will expect them to go back into a school.
My problem is my DS is being homeschooled as he is suspected ADHD and autism currently undiagnosed but he does not cope well in a classroom and gets very frustrated with himself and will get violent and disruptive due to anxiety. He is better one to one in an academic setting although he does get the socialising from his football team and trips out and friends outside of school and I fully intend to set up a network of friends for him in France.
I am just worried that if they ask him to sit a test he will not pass and if he is put into a school he would not cope and would be expelled again. I could not go through what I have been through here in England in a foreign country as it was a nightmare. He is much more settled now and we are all so much happier as we know how to be with him. He is learning so much more then he ever did at school!
Thanks
