Toilet training

NAS36688

 My son recently started toilet training and had it down to a fine art when he was at school. But since  we had school summer holidays he has refused to wear pants at home. He wears pants now but he’s back at school but as soon as he gets home wants a nappy put back on and I’ve tried everything I can from reward charts to telling him that every person that he knows wears big boy pants he still refusing to wear them. Does anyone have any advice
