At last, a school that suits Kiley
Article Abstract:
When pupils with learning or behaviour problems are expelled from the British state school system it is difficult to find other options. If parents do not want their child to attend another mainstream state school, they must apply for a statement of special needs so the child can go to a special school. Special schools vary greatly and parents must search to find the right one for their child. Local authorities, once they have expelled a child from a mainstream school, offer minimal assistance in finding an alternative.

What to do if school makes your child sad
Article Abstract:
Moving a child to a different school can create both academic and social problems. The child's continuity of learning is disrupted, and settling down in a new school can take a long time. For this reason, parents should avoid unnecessary moves. However, moving school can make a child more independent and self-confident, and need not be too damaging if handled well. Parents should ensure that the new school receives detailed records of the child's achievements.

Big school, big trauma: give an 11-year-old a hand to hold
Article Abstract:
Many 11-year-olds can find making the transition to secondary school a difficult experience, as can their families. They often have to adapt to a much larger school, where there are new methods of working and discipline and where older pupils can seem very intimidating. Many schools are now dealing with these anxieties by introducing a transition programme.
