My son is getting really stressed at going to school, having headaches and stomach aches, He doesn't want to go back to school, he wants to go to another school, my biggest fear is, they may not let him into a new school not to mention the teasing just may continue, what should I do??

If your son doesn't want to go to school, there must be a genuine underlying reason. A 9 year old must be taken seriously. You should sit him down one to one and have a chat about whats worrying him and trust him in whatever he tells you. If the school is not on his side, then he need you to be there for him. Do not ignore what he is saying.
