This has been something I have dreaded for 2 years. Our DS goes to a local school very small English speaking unit but large Welsh speaking unit. He has been in the Welsh Unit for 2 years in the hope that I would be comfortable with bilingualism, however, he is not particularly confident with the language but very happy socially. I now really feel that he needs to be educated through the medium of English to progess educationally (we do not speak Welsh and want him to progess to the English speaking Comp.)
In the last few months it appeared that his bf would be making the 'break' and going over to the English Unit with him, now it appears this may not happen. We broke the news tonight that he would probably be going to a new class on his own, cue the biggest tantrum I have ever witnessed him having - he does not want to go! I am really upset even thinking of perhaps a new school perhaps that would be easier? Oh god how should I have gone about this, I really think he is going to dig in his heels?!
