My older girl was shifted out of her class to the classes behind her level.

Younger girl remains in her own original class.

They will need the help and encouragement that they need.

Starting this year, my main PT job is being formalised - now I have official working hours (2.5 days) and annual leave. Before, no-one monitored me as long as I delivered the work! I was the only one allowed that leeway, and it seems better to normalise my working schedule. Oh well, I am also covering some of the duties of a person who has left until we find a replacement, so being in the office more is better anyway.

Actually, you can switch to working full time? 5 days a week kind.

I was quite happy with the way things were - I delivered the work, and got to multitask at home, and only attended meetings twice a week. I worked strict office hours 2.5 days a week in another job a couple of years ago so the routine is not unfamiliar to me. I'm not keen to do FT as there isn't enough for me to do (unless I take on other responsibilities which I don't want), and I still take on the occasional freelance project, which I enjoy. My husband likes me to have more flexi-time to help my older girl when she runs into difficulties, though it's been happening less.

Good news for the day: she got her last semester results today - mostly B's and 2 B+'s - which we are very happy with. The way she described her exams, we were prepared for worse. But my other daughter says she must have been \"managing expectations\".
