Inset looms – Sun 22nd Feb 2015
By Jeannette | February 22, 2015
For D – and that has meant the rest of us – today has been dominated by one fact, that she returns to school tomorrow whilst T has an inset day.
This is causing her considerable angst whilst T has been delighted. Not easy to manage. D is very much in the “here and now” and, despite gentle reminders, has forgotten that she had two inset days after Christmas.
T takes the news that D has an inset day when they occur and he doesn’t just as badly btw.
For D today, there have been tears, refusals and attempts to hurt herself. She’ll be fine I’m sure tomorrow, once she’s back in the school day routine, however, it’s the change to the morning (ie. T will be around and walking with us) and the afternoon (if she has forgotten, once she sees T waiting with me, she’ll remember) that will be tricky.
Hopefully – everything crossed – he’ll make allowances for her feelings and at least we’ll get her into school relatively calm. Hopefully.
