Hi

Does anyone do flexi-schooling with thier children?

We have one child who goes to a minstram school and another that home schools.

This works out well and caters for thier individual needs. Sometimes though our youngest has home school days and stays off. We have arranged this with th education authorities here in Ireland and it works out well for us. It probably wouldn't work if every child in the school did this. As far as I know we wers one of the first to implement such a thing.

Does anyone else do flexi schooling, how does it work for you?

Cheers

Ian

It's grat that it works for you

Are they not lablelled as outcasts by the other pupils? I remember one boy in my year who did 3 days a week in school. there were so many rumours flying about over why he was only in 3 days a week; he was dying/from a broken home/spending time in the headmaster's study for being a tearaway/in care/etc I don't know what happened to him or what was really going on except that I'm sure none of the rumours were true. kids can be very cruel about someone being different.
