Book Description

How to see your child off to school with a smile

From the Back Cover

It can be utterly agonising to send your child to school when you know they hate it. Many parents are in tears day after day as a result. And watching all those other parents dropping off happy smiling children makes it feel all the more lonely.

Thousands of parents go through the same thing every day. Maybe your child is being bullied, or maybe they're struggling to keep up. Perhaps they're bored, or maybe they have social or learning difficulties. Whatever the reason, it makes everyone's life hell.

That's why Antonia Chitty has put together this guide to coping. You'll have tried what you can already, but here are lots more ideas too, whatever kind of solution you want:

  • How to talk to the school to get the problems resolved
  • How to change schools wthin the state system
  • Alternative schools, from Montessori and Steiner to boarding school
  • Home education
  • Flexischooling and home tutoring

There is an answer, and this book will help you find it. It may take a little while, but it's only a matter of time before your child will be happy to get up in the mornings, and may eve head off to school with a smile.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hate school? 22 Aug 2011
By Parents in Touch TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
Subtitled 'How to see your child off to school with a smile again', this book reassures parents that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Parents need to find out what the problem is - not wanting to go to school is likely to be triggered by a particular circumstance. Once that is identified - and the book is helpful in doing that - it gives strategies to cope and much practical advice on talking to your child. There is practical advice on working it out with the school, but if that does not work, the book discusses alternatives - moving school, special types of school and home education.
