And that's due to the lack of guidelines from the department at the moment.
So you can be very lucky or you can be very, very unfortunate depending on the school that you end up in and the teachers that you work with and the principals that you're dealing with.
And even with that within a school,
the situation changes from teacher to teacher in some cases.
So each year it's a different conversation in a different way with a different person.
The lack of guidelines is hard.
I'd be kind of disagree if you were to read some of the testimonials coming from parents from all over the country.
Even in the bigger schools, it can be very ad hoc.
And it's again, the schools are...
I suppose to clarify my point on this, like we're in a very fantastic school.
The teachers are amazing.
The school is wonderful.
But we've fought long and hard for our update options here and to get the system that we have in place with the school.
And that's because all schools are operating in a vacuum here.
So there's no guidance from the Department of Education.
And the schools themselves are up to their tonsils with work and paperwork and dealing with everything else.
I mean, it's a very difficult situation for them.
It's as frustrating for them as it is for us.
to have to have repeated meetings and phone calls and sending emails when something else is happening.
And that's all in the absence of any clear direction from the department.
