First time poster, so apologies if this is the wrong place but could really do with some advice/personal experiences please.
My dd is 4 years old, born end August so one of, if not the youngest in school. I had originally planned on delaying her start until she was 5 but the school offered part time hours, and kept saying she may have to skip year 6 and go straight to secondary school, which obviously really worried me. I admit I (and dh) should have done our own research but we felt lost and thought the school knew best...
Anyway, fast forward to now (March) and dd is still part time. Every time we suggest extending her hours she begs not to. She has cried every morning bar one since January. Sometimes, she hides under the table holding onto the table legs, screaming and begging not to go to school.
Almost makes herself sick. The teachers say she's settled when there, but very quiet still. I'm worried we sent her too early and she wasn't/isn't ready emotionally for school. I want to take her out and start again in September (I'm a SAHM) but not sure if my own feelings are clouding my judgement (I walk home from drop off crying most days.) And how complicated that would be?
Any words of wisdom greatly appreciated. Thank you.
