Hi there
Am in the process of looking to move back to uk to Wimbledon or Richmond area from Australia.
Has anyone had any experience of the transition into the uk education system from Australia?
My son is about to start grade 6 here but because of the school year cut off etc, he would go into grade 8 in the uk. One of the independent schools I spoke to said they don't even normally like to take kids into that year because it's high pressure and lots of assessment. It's kind of freaked me out! The uk system is a lot more academic and assessment driven it seems.
Anyone got any advice?
