@Rial I know, I can’t decide what’s best. It’s not too bad but it’s a bit rough and there’s a lot of naughty kids. I sent him to the nicer area because I didn’t want him being more likely to get into the wrong crowd. However, when I took him on a school trip, the boys who I thought were his best friends, were constantly mean to him, telling him to stop following them and that he can’t sit with them. Since then it’s opened my eyes and I’ve seen how the kids here are quite snooty and not very friendly to my son. It’s obviously a general reflection of who their parents are and their upbringings. I just can’t decide what’s best. My partner is also ill and can’t always drive us which is a 30 min round trip by car. When I get the bus it’s 2 hours there and back twice a day by bus. A closer school will be a 30 min walk there and back
It's not a nicer area if the kids are bullies.
It’s sad that the school in the nice area have kids who are mean. I don’t understand why parents allow this to happen. No parent wants to put their child in a school where they will get bullied. What do you mean by bad area? as I think the local school might be better. A two hour bus journey isn’t worth it for a child who will be upset at school all day
Realistically. Every school has mean kids and every school has nice kids so
I think that’s a difficult decision. What kind of a bad area is it. Why would kids look down on a child
