My son is 8 years old and is in Year 3. I recently asked his father to leave our home; this has understandably had an adverse effect on DS and he became withdrawn, angry and sullen - most unlike his normal self as it is possible to be.
At any rate I kept him off school yesterday and today as I could see he was upset. As it is I want to support him at school but am wondering if giving him a bit more time is possibly the answer: he seems relaxed at home.
If I effectively 'withdraw' him for a few weeks - is this permitted? Can he go back (say) after Easter, if he feels ready, or would this involve a lot of paperwork and the like?
Any ideas? If it's relevant I also have a nearly one year old DD and am expecting no3 this summer.
