Just to give you a bit of context. Dd is my first child. She has just had her 2.5 year check. It was acknowledged that she is quite advanced with things and it was suggested that I start looking at schools where the teacher:pupil ratio was such that she would get the attention she might need.
I have a young baby so I am struggling to find time to do the latter just yet. But it is playing on my mind that she may get bored at school. Additionally she is very very tall (99.6 centile) and on top of it she will be among the oldest in her class - will she become a bit of a misfit? Would they put her up a class?
I wonder if you may have any thoughts to share please as to what might happen or what I should do especially as I am giving thought to preschool. Also we do have two examples in my family (mother, brother) who were bored/hated school because of similar reasons, but perhaps (hopefully?) things today are different.
