    I would be telling the catholic school of your experiences so they know why you are wanting to change.

    Definitely enquire at the Catholic school. Our parish (there are 4 primary schools in it) had to refuse 60 children for Prep as they didn't have places. At our school, 2 children have left since the start of term and there is another one leaving at the end of the week (apparently).

    You might be lucky. Ask to speak to the Principal (or student enrolment coordinator) and explain why you wantto transfer her.

    Thanks chocoholic I'm going to ring this morning. We are Anglican so I know we have that hurdle but I think it will be best for her.
    Hopefully her first week won't involve her being spat on,threaten to be bitten,stabbed in the arm with a pencil and accused by 6th graders and blamed for things she didn't do.

    Dd said this mOrning she lOves school but doesn't like her teacher and wants to be in miss M's class as she doesn't like boys

    Good luck.

    I would do some preparation before the interview such as writing down the issues with the current school. You can then take it with you and if they ask for details, you can hand it over.
