Thank you all, this has been really encouraging to read and you've given us a lot to think about. The school said it will be working up two plans for us to consider, with a skip and without, so we will see what they can do for her.

Another question for those who have skipped: How did you handle the situation socially? Did you mention the skip to others before hand or just wait for class lists to come out for the year and try to fly under the radar? Did your child lose friends?

Thanks again.
