My sons secondary is an ofsted outstanding school so I expect high standards :p he's in year 9.
He isn't very academic and they have given him a lot of support with his English. Since starting the school in year 7 we also realised he found maths difficult too so he's been having lessons in a smaller group which would be great but out of the 8 children in the group, 6 of them couldn't care less so mess about a lot. My son is easily distracted (verging on ADHD and also verging on dyslexia) so he's made hardly any progress. hes a level 4 so quite low.
So, I get a newsletter this morning saying 'thank-you to all the students who have taken the extra maths lessons after school on weds'.....WHAT?!?
Why did I not get any information about this...I'm so cross..they asked the students and obviously my son didn't volunteer, being quiet, laid back and not particularly bothered. So I will be having words with him later but I'm also cross at the school as they didn't let me know of the extra maths that he could benefit from so much...grrr
