Eek I can't believe it's time to make these decisions. We have a choice of 3 senior schools one of which is far better than the others but it is furthest away. However dd is adamant she doesn't want to go there? I want to pull rank as this is such an important decision and just tell her tough luck but am I setting myself up for her to hate it there? Should I take her preference into account ? I'm so torn. She has said she wants to go to the nearest school so she lives near her friends and doesn't have a long journey to school. But I want her to have the best education. ? I've had a look on line and our local school gets 2x the amount of funding per child and results have been improving year on year so it's not a "bad" school.
How much choice have you/will you give your dc's?
