I am a tutor currently working with a year 7 pupil. She goes to a comprehensive school in Herts and is very far behind in certain areas from primary school. Her father is trying really hard to get help from the teachers at secondary school but he is struggling. The first subject specific parent's evening is in May! I had written a letter which she took into school asking her form tutor to give us some help finding subject worksheets from her teachers but neither I nor her father received any reply whatsoever. It is her parent's evening next month and her dad has asked me to come along, and to write a letter to each teacher asking for help.
I've read a lot of the threads on here with respect to tutoring but unfortunately, there aren't exams in secondary school for a while so practising papers alone isn't going to improve her grades in class (which is the problem, the way the marking is done in class is unknown to me therefore I cannot tutor to the standard required.)
Thank you for any advice you may have.
