Lakshmi Hoysal: Hi this is a bit off the advice you’re seeking but out of personal experience I can say, if you have been trying for over 2 years you’re eligible for fertility treatment free of cost with the NHS. As it’s an expensive procedure the gps will seldom suggest to you straight away. You need to insist and be very firm and tell them you need to go for it. Good luck x
Poonam Joshi: You and 6 others manage the membership, moderators, settings and posts for Indian Ladies UK (ILU) – Unity In Diversity. Instead of taking tablets and loads of over stress..just relax. completely take this pressure off you of getting pregnant! Go on short holidays or weekends away. Download an app that will keep track of your fertile days and make sure to mate on those days with passion and let the love flow rather than this burden of somehow getting pregnant. I personally know you and you are still very young…don’t stress out girl. Go on film dates, coffee dates with your hubby. Let it happen naturally. You will see success soon xx
Purnima Bhati: Hi, I can’t imagine what he must be going through. You have to speak to school head and class teacher and demand they need to sort it out as your child’s well being is their responsibility too. You can may be send anonymous letter to ofsted complaining about the situation. I hope this situation gets resolved Asap xx
Aarti Kumar : Hi , my son’s been through similar situations in 2 different schools, after the first instance we changed his school as we got no support from them. Then after moving to a new school after a while similar issues started up here and this time we got a lot of support from the school. Despite of that he is still going through these issues. I have now looked at other ways to support him. I do think though changing schools might help as this will make him feel u are listening and care. Because even if you are doing that at the moment in his mind your actions may not match. Also please remember an unhappy child will never be able to perform in anything eventually, not just grammar school assessments. I know what you are going through but eventually we can only support them

Dipal Patel: Grammar schools are good for now but 10 years down the line I’m not too sure. Government is already pushing Grammar schools to have ‘mix of all’ rather than just academically good kids.
Dipal Patel: Priyanka, its mainly the secondary schools but again it is not easy to go to top independent schools from State schools for secondary education (difficult but not impossible). And again its not only the education but its bringing out the best in children. Independent schools really push children for excellent 11+ results.
Priyanka Sharma: Dipal Patel I am curious about this. The university results are good for kids who have done primary education in private schools or are they good for those who have done secondary schooling from private schools? And where does grammar schools stand because they are state funded secondary schools
Dipal Patel: It depends on what you want. Independent schools are expensive but clearly you get more from Independent schools then what state schools can offer (ow no one would be sending their kids to independent schools). I personally feel if you can afford Independent schools then thats is better than sending you child to state school. Look at the admission stats of Oxford and Cambridge unis, majority comes from private schools. It does make a lot of difference.
