Just thought I'd post this as I know it comes up a lot on here.
We are a not-so-rich family who have successfully gained bursaries for our dc to attend local prep schools.
We both work all the hours we can, and have a smallish 3 bed semi house and stuggle to keep tabs on the money.
The dc are 4 weeks in and are so very very happy. Both are making friends easily, and the other parents have been friendly and welcoming. Tbh I was afraid of how we would fit in being the "poor" family, but I really needn't have worried. I am not pretending to be anything I'm not, and people don't mind I have to work and dc don't do loads of clubs.
Really, at the moment I feel as though it's the best thing we've ever done.
There. Just wanted to say that. Thank you.
