So DS has just finished reception and enjoyed it. We struggled to choose a school, we are in Northern Ireland and really wanted an integrated school rather than one linked to a church. We had two close to us, one is smaller but well regarded so particularly difficult to get into and would involve more traffic and earlier start. The second is walkable, larger and has less of good reputation. We choose the second one but since starting I sometimes regret it as there doesn't seem to be as much going on, minimal after school activities and events etc. I put DS name on the waiting list for the first and we've got a call there is a place available to start next year
DS has enjoyed school, he has a little group of friends and has mostly done well with his learning. Moving would be more for his future and possibly he would get more out of the school. Has anyone moved their child? Just worry how he will cope in a new class initially as they will all know each other from the previous year
