Can some talk some sense into me?! It's playing on our minds already as we are about to move out of London. Either Manchestwr or Scotland.
Now I like the ideal of starting school a little later as normal in Scotland. In Manchester, I'd have to fight to defer a year into reception, and even if that's given the ok, have to reapply for a place the following year I might not get!
Obviously I have no idea how 'ready' he will be, but I just do not want my son to start school at such a young age! If he was born a few weeks later he would have a whole extra year. I think school starting age of 5 is really young anyway, and as selfish as this sounds I feel like I am losing a year of us being together.
Does anyone have any thoughts / opinions : grips?
