Moving house and moving my son to new school

[LindsEd]

I am hoping to move to the Driffield/Nafferton area (East Riding).

This is about an hour away from where I currently live.

My son is 10 and had just gone into year 6.

He of course does not want to move schools, however I think it would be better for him long term. As it will be better for him to have friends in the local area.

My other dilemma is should I leave him at his current junior school until the end of year 6? Then move him to local secondary school? Or should I move him to the local junior school before secondary school to get to know the children prior to secondary school.

Please give me some reassuring adviceThis would be much appreciated .

Thank you
