Hi,
It's been an unforseen move but we are having to move from the English system to the Scottish system. The two little dc will be fine but my eldest is 16. We had a bit of a forced move a few years ago from Scotland to the English system with my Husbands work and now another move is on the cards. Ds16 never adapted to the English school and has been miserably homesick begging to return to Scotland. Obviously all his mates have now sat their Nat5's and he is still ploughing through gcse course work. I know if we could nurse him through till May that would be best academically but I'm increasingly worried about how sad and withdrawn he is here. It looks like my Husbands contact is ending soon anyway and if ds really can't manage the whole year is he better pulling the plug now and doing d5 from scratch. Would he even be allowed to sit highers??
Or if we could get his mocks out of the way at Christmas and move back over the break?
I'm just trying to mitigate the mess of a move in this one crucial year will cause.
Does anyone have any experience of a move at 16??
Thanks
