My 11 yr old daughter will be starting at a vocational boarding school in September and I wonder if anyone has any tips, experiences or information that could help with the settling in process and the practicalities of life as a boarder etc. She is very strong and determined but I expect that the impact of her being away from home will be greater than she thinks. I am totally in the dark about what to expect and I'm sure there are loads of things we haven't thought of yet that will make everything much more straightforward!
