Hi, from peoples own experience when is the best age to move a girl from the Junior school in the UK to either Junior, Senior or Intermediate in nZ?
To clarify what are the pros and cons if;
a.) Moving at the end of UK year 5 before NZ year 6 starts so she can assimilate into a smaller group at a primary school, or
b.) Move after the end of UK year 6 straight into year 7 in NZ?
Our daughter is neither outgoing or shy and the added bonus of moving into NZ year 6 would be that she'd have her younger brother in the same school in year 4.
That would mean bringing forward the timeline though.
Anyone else faced this dilemma and been through the same transition with schools?
TIA
