My daughter is about to take the huge step up to high school this year, I am looking forward to this as much as she is I think,the transition from junour school to high school in uk,although a huge step, is often a great experience for the ADD child, instead of being sat in One room for the entire day ,which I might add is a difficult task even for the most patient of us, the day is broken up into half hour segments, I am hoping,well actually praying,that this is beneficial for my daughter, whos life at school so far has been nothing less than a nightmare, to say she dislikes school would be a gross understatement. I would love to hear experiences from other mums and dads in this situation,any helpfull hints or do's and dont's would be greatly appreciated.....

Well scince you have not seen this post in awhile I was woundering how your daughter went in high school? Was/is there any problems etc etc.

Be prepared..lots of kids crash and burn on that transistion....but it is true, lots of other kids thrive on the change.
