[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 76181, member: 1991"] Like svengandhi, we would ask the school to notify us in the event of a substitute and we would, if necessary, keep difficult child 3 home. They didn't always tell us, and sometimes it wasn't too bad (once he got up to about grade 3). But it was much easier on everybody and frankly, difficult child 3 always worked much better at home. Still does. About grade 3, the teacher was on long-service leave and the substitute was going to be there for a term, so difficult child 3 had to get used to him. The sub turned out to be really good with difficult child 3. He is now retired, lives a few doors away and we often drop in for a visit. You make your own way in this sort of thing. Again, a communication book helps a great deal. You can tell very quickly then, if it's working or if it's not. You can also use the book to dramatically increase the chance of things working.
