What a week. My 2 back to school. My youngest is in his last year of primary school and my oldest is in her last year of her GCSEs. Very emotional times. I feel for my youngest as he is sitting a test in November called the transfer test to determine if he gets into a grammar school. He is very capable but in his old school he was constantly misunderstood and suspended missing weeks and weeks of his education and stripping him of his right to learn and be taught. He has now been officially diagnosed so all the time the old school shouted at him and punished him for not being able to stand still or stand in line was actually due to an underlying issue.
