Letter

To the Head of Year 7 Admissions regarding Fran,

Thank you for the welcome you recently extended to our daughter at your Year 7 Admissions Day; she had an interesting and thought-provoking day. However, on balance and following an equally interesting and exciting half term taster at *****, we have decided, in consultation with our daughter, to make alternative arrangements for Frances’s educational provision which will suit her aptitudes and abilities more closely.

I would be grateful if you could confirm that Frances will not be added to the school roll in September so that we do not have any confusion with the LA as to whether or not she should be attending.

Dropping it in this morning with her. Thank goodness for that.

    That looks remarkably like the letter I sent to H’s primary school the night before term started, saying absolutely nothing, and creating some assumptions.;-)

  • Very pleased for you, back to normal for a bit at least.

  • Merry at work:

    Grin.All this time answering customer emails with a politely worded version of whatever was really appropriate, has helped ;)

  • HelenHaricot:

    ahhhhhhhhhhhhhthe sound of a relieved exhale.

  • Glad to know that the desicion has been reached quickly–and that you weren’t left in limbo for weeks again.

    Hope Fran is happy with the desicion.

  • Allie:

    Great! :-)

  • pleased to hear that a decision has been made so quickly. and well done for acting on on it equally as quickly.

  • Emma:

    Yay! – the adventures of 4 in the land of HE again. :-)

  • SallyM:

    Glad you all agreed on a decision without so much heartache this time. Bet you have a big grin!

  • I’m oddly ambivalent about it; i walked into the school yesterday and it really is a horrid place, feels like a prison as has very 70′s buildings and a huge spiked fence all round. So i am glad she is not going there, which was always my main concern.

    But this half term has given her confidence in herself and she has shone; in a way i am sorry she can’t have another year there, for all it is a pain to have it actually in our life. But we can work on giving her even more opportunities for that kind of thing.

    It’s been a good experiment – i doubt half a term at seniors would have been so positive a try out and in a way it makes it all clearer for us all now. So glad that we did do it but gladder that she has been able to make her own informed choice.

  • Liz:

    Sad the system hasn’t worked but glad that home education is there again for you all. I keep being asked whether my daughter will be going to school when she is older but it is such an experiment and there is much wrong with the “system”. I wish it wasn’t that way and wish there was more flexibility to access the positives of the system without having to entirely submerse in all the negatives too. Oh well! I just hope this awful Consultation doesn’t get made into law because we’d end up having to deal with the negatives of testing and permission and so on.
