After so many months of applications, paperwork, and waiting, you find out your child didn't get in.

Of course it hurts.

You spent time, money, and a whole lot of anxiety getting here.

Now, rightfully so, you want to know what happened.

You will probably never know exactly why the school said no.

Sometimes, when you apply to a school, there simply isn't enough space for all the children applying.

Other times, though, the admissions process reveals something you need to pay attention to.

Maybe your child couldn't separate from you. Maybe they were overwhelmed. Maybe they simply weren't ready for the classroom yet.

And please, don't make the rejection your child's problem. They don't need to feel like they failed.

You have options. You can apply somewhere else, or you can use the time to build the skills your child needs to be ready.

If you just got that email, don't panic. Take a breath and we can figure out where your child actually is right now and what they need next. Book a free consultation Kinota Braithwaite - Learning & Assessment Specialist
