[QUOTE="lovelyboy, post: 563351, member: 8045"] Hi all, was out of sirculation for few weeks....had a neck operation, very unsuspected! So during and after my neck op, me and hubby decided we had enough of the pressure that my sons current school is putting on the kids...Enough of teachers manipulating my son in going to camp, enough of little dude being excluded of events because he cant sit still....Enough of my oldest sons teacher, who told them" if they get less than 80% in tests...they are not making her proud!!!!" So we went to have a look at a small Afrikaans school, its 30 min drive in trafic, but very friendly, no nonsense school! The kids are actually being encourage to go to school without shoes! It only has 420 kids, and is only primary school.....They also have an Occupational Therapist (OT), ST and playtherapist. Ok, its not this fancy, perfect private school.....like where my kids are now, its an old goverment school, 80 yrs old, but every one knows every one and the principal is an old " grandpa" type, who is VERY envolved in the kids and the running of the school...has been there for 19 yrs! Now suddenly the teachers at my kids current school is " blown away" by the news that we are moving schools! Now suddenly my kids are doing so great and little dude has improved so much! This after the principal told me directly that little one " isnt coping in their school and is having a hard time!" [/QUOTE]
