[QUOTE="Malika, post: 535268, member: 11227"] French is the second language of Morocco, the language that all educated people speak there and the "passport" to a myriad of jobs. I also believe - doubtless because I am also bilingual, though not from birth, and work with language - that learning languages as a child is a really important thing, something that opens a child intellectually and culturally in a way that nothing else really can. I'm not even sure that a Waldorf/Steiner school IS what I want/what J needs! As is clear, I am all of a tizzy, as we say... Steiner is fine, like I say I've kind of been around it and have respect for it, but I don't see it personally as the absolute ideal. It might be really good for J, though. So extremely impossible to say without the gift of foresight!! It would surely be better for him than a system in which he is constantly punished and marginalised. Anyway, I am going to go and SEE it with my own eyes and on the basis of that experience, will be in a far more realistic place to make a decision. [/QUOTE]
