Got the call from the principal. She was obviously aware that the conversation with DH didn't go very well. Anyhow - I think that the aim of today's call was to try and encourage a more positive ambience for the scheduled meeting. Her focus seems to be on 'what can the school do' to meet Han's individual need, and some of the 'cons' like class size and teacher time, other kid's competing demands etc. Anyway - I still wish she'd request the conversation AFTER having said that Han could enrol in the school - cos that will impact on what we say - it is hard to view things as 'we are on the same team - let's come up with a plan' when half the team is jealously guarding the right to walk away from us and our beautiful Hannah. Still I really feel that here is our best chance of a school that matches our values, that is able to offer something of value to BOTH our kids. So fingers crossed.
Soon we will be attending a fundraiser there - let's hope it goes well and DH and the principal don't come to blows!
