No we didn't. My older brother had the choice to be held back by one year since he's technically 2 weeks younger than the official cut off (in the US you start school a little earlier). But he chose not to repeat a grade. Now he's the youngest kid in his class.
Great videos - a must watch for any family with school-aged children thinking about relocating to the German-speaking part of Switzerland!
very informative guys well done and keep up the learning.
Did you guys lose a school year or basically had to repeat when going to the "aufnahmeklasse"? Super helpful video tho!
