Re: School Ages
Am following your thread with great iperhaps Red Dragon. My daughter is just finishing year 6 in the UK. She has just received really good SATs even though she has mild concentration/memory problems from her dyspraxia. She too is taller than all her peers ( I think its the kiwi blood in her). I suspect when we move over in October she will have to join 1st year at Intermediate. I cant imagine her being very impressed at the thought of extra tests to establish her levels though!
Agree about the kiwi blood and perhaps the helping of weetbix

Re: School Ages
Yes RedDragon I am going home, my kids will go to the same primary/intermediate that I attended about 30 years after I left them, I wonder how much they've changed! So far the only diffrence I can see is uniforms that cost a fortune have been introduced at primary school and sun hats.
