Hi Please help me ..Yesterday my 6 year old son came home in tears , telling me as best he could ( no school note ) that his class is "breaking up" and he is going into a different class (1st ) next year with some boys who are not his buddies. His two best friends are going together into another class . So i asked his principal this morning to explain as he doesnt know whats after happening... THe Principal tells me that they have received an extra teacher for mainstream, she needs to use her up so she is splitting all of the new 1st class up for septand he will have only 14 in his new class ( yes 14 ! ) I said but " he is not with his two friends " but two boys he never ever plays with . The principal explained that he had picked these other boys himself ..I said When ? MY son says he didnt and doesnt know or rem being asked ( hes only 6 ! ) i asked her could he go in with his friends if the class numbers are so small as his socialable and emotional side will suffer if he changes from his best friends now after 2 years together ..she flatly told me no !and i have no rights to expect it to be chasnged and shes not changing her mind .. I was flummoxed ! ive never ever ever caused a problem , gone in , complained on anything with this school. In fact my two older children went though it , with brilliant results . She is a new principal since last year. she says he is with his friends and im saying hes not ( i dont even know the other boys ..) and shes says there is nothing i can do about it !! Really.. Have I any rights ..she tells me NO " Im devasted for my little fella , who now thinks he did something wrong.. hes only 6.. and a good little boy ..middle of the road accademically but a lovely little chappy ...have i no input re my childs education or emotional or social rights ???
Can she just do this to him and i cant say ..please dont ... he is so sad tonight ... I jave requested a second meeting on monday so that my husband can come in as my boy does not understand ...please give me some guidance
