Well after all the blooming hoohah that middle son age 8 doesn't need extra help at school regardless of him having a specific learning disability (he is dyslexic but they won't actually commit that to paper due to various reasons) - I have found a letter in his bag today saying that he is behind with his work and the school is taking "action" and he is to be placed on the SEN register.
Not sure if I am cross or not. I am really glad he is finally getting some extra help (we have been shelling out for a private tutor again for the last few weeks as I have been getting quite concerned) but surely they could have called me in to tell me this instead of sending a letter home. They promised me they would keep me updated - which they haven't done:(
I am cross that they have done this by letter and that they won't actually commit to him being dyslexic.
methinks a trip into school would be appropriate (again - think I am going to set up camp there)
