Thank you for taking the time to read this...I'm not really sure if I'm after a bit of advice or just want to get some very un PC things off my chest...
My DD started reception class at our local primary school on Monday and thus far is having a lovely time. My concern (here's the un PC bit) is that it's a large school with a large catchment area and with the exception of a few (less than 5) there are no 'people like us'. The vast majority appear to be Jeremy Kyle types and I'm a bit concerned (read a lot concerned) about the sort of influence these parents/ children will have on my daughter. Without going into loads of detail, they are the sort who walk to school at 0830 with a can of coke, haven't brushed their hair, look v.dirty before school has even started etc.
I know this makes me sound very snobby. I'm not, I just want my DD to be surrounded by decent, hard-working types. I don't get that vibe at the moment...
Should I follow my heart and look elsewhere? The school has a fairly good reputation but nothing that would be worth clinging on for...
Any thoughts/ opinions greatly appreciated...
PS before anyone really gets the wrong impression about me, this is not about level of income/ perecieved wealth.
