Are you worried about getting your child into a decent school? Do you find the school post-code lottery unfair? Have you even considered moving house just to make sure your child gets a place in the best school in your community? If so you’ll be pleased to know that we have two educational experts dropping in to give some much-needed information and advice to parents about the schooling of their children.

Anne Tinlepaugh – an advice worker from the Advisory Centre for Education (ACE) and Bob Reitemeier, Chief Executive of The Children's Society will be listening to your concerns and questions and offering you some comprehensive information and advice on this issue. They are well aware of the pressure parents are under to ensure their children get a decent education, and will be talking about what steps you can take to alleviate that pressure.

Our two experts will also be talking about the increased amount of stress on kids and how this is impacting on family life. They will be highlighting the findings of their recent Good Childhood Inquiry, which has explored the various elements of childhood such as learning, family, friends and health to see what factors make a good childhood possible.

Anne Tinklepaugh - advice worker from the Advisory Centre for Education and Bob Reitemeier, Chief Executive of The Children's Society join us live online at Webchat on Wednesday 17th October at 16.30 to discuss childhood and schooling.
