Hi. I have a child in Y8, who has decided over the last 5 months that she wants to move to the secondary school that some of her primary school friends go to. Which is in our catchment area. She wasn’t close to any of them when she went up to secondary school, and was even enjoying her new school. The school she goes to is a very good school and her older sister goes there. The school she asks every day to move to is not. I feel awful when she’s begging every morning to move, but I know that educationally it would be the wrong move. She sees her friends after school and weekends, but that is obviously not enough. How do I explain to her that I do care if she’s happy.. or is that the reason she should move?
