My DD now at yr 3 is at her 2nd state school. She is a free reader, writes well with no grammar or spell mistakes.... Maths is super easy for her. She would do 3 digit divisions without any fuss. Knows all her times tables.
Now her weaknesses : she wont speak up, she cannot explain things in detail. Its mostly nodding or yes/no answers. also lacks self motivation.
Her lovely school is really good in many ways but she is often asked to sit quietly and read because she finished her work quick. [They should leave her with an open ended question]
As a natural progression I reviewed and chose 2 independent schools for her to test and try a desk. She comes home and says it was easier than her current school also the kids are only just learning to arrange numbers and subtractions.
I'm frustrated I could not help her learn more when she is still willing to.
- Anyone know any school academically too good. Around guildford, newbury, BSK, reading pl.
- willing mums please give me a comparison on a yr 3's learning process. As in primary schools unwilling to let a bright child go anywhere beyond their expected level eg: level 5 at year 6 is the maximum this school could do.
