Would you move your child due to air pollution?

[Ebandan]

On the horns of a dilemma.
My dd went to school A for nursery. She didn't get a place there in reception, so went to school B. Now, a term and a half later, the council are offering a place at school A.
Both are perfectly good - and she's well settled at school B, has made friends, teachers great. But school B has more than 10k cars and buses a day whizzing past the gates on two sides. The playground stinks of diesel sometimes. School A is on a much quieter road.
Would you move her? She's quite confident, but it's a big upheaval for any child. I'm inclined to think that she'll be well settled again in a few months, whereas the pollution effects could last a lifetime. Or am I, as my partner and mother think, being silly?
Thank you

Why was the other school your first choice in the begining? She's likely not to even remember moving at this point in reception. That's seems like a v busy road and I would personally prefer option A so they can have some independence and ability to walk to school come year 5/6.
The air pollution would worry me too tbh. Our DD went to primary that backed out onto a v busy road that fed to an A road in London. Her school had lots of ivy all over the fences and really big trees so it looked like a wall of green.

Thanks for your response. It is a city so the options for walking to school are limited for either school until she's much older. We choose the nursery precisely because it was less polluted. Thought we'd be fine for her to stay there but there were thousands of sibling places in her cohort.
Her current school has done loads to try to ameliorate the problem - green walls, trees, signs to try to stop people driving to school. There's also a lively and growing attempt to filter roads in the ward. But still... The air is filthy and likely to remain so

Yes, I would. More and more information is coming out about the lifetime effects of exposure to pollution in early childhood, both physical and cognitive. Pollution would figure very highly in my choice of school.

Yes, I would...and did. Have never regretted it...
Look at the pollution figures carefully if both in the city though...might not be as much of a difference as you think...in which case it's not such a straightforward decision...

Yes I would.
