From Primary to Secondary: Drama aiding the leap

‘Mrs Smith? It's Sam's carer. Yeah, thanks for taking the call. I was worried that I wouldn't catch you before you started your maternity leave. Well, you see it's about Sam's move to the big school. She is looking forward to meeting new friends and teachers, and use all the equipment in science and drama departments. Although, I think that she is worried about the work being harder – especially with her support needs. To be honest, I've not told her yet, but I've got a new job in a different city and they want me to start next week. I know this is bad timing as Sam is getting ready to move to the local secondary school at the end of the month. However, I want to take the job as it is better money and it's something that I've always wanted to do. I'm just not sure how to tell Sam. She is so close to her friends, you, and the other teachers. Basically, it's because of me this is all happening. Sorry, I forgot that this must be hard on you too – you have been there for her throughout her time in primary school, and you are having a baby. Do you have any ideas for what I can do to help Sam?
