DS is 8 and just started at a new school (in Scotland so schools already back). He had issues with concentration and social situations at his previous school so we have a meeting with his teacher tomorrow.
Yesterday DS mentioned that he wished he was in reading group 1 because they were reading Fantastic Mr Fox and George's Marvellous Medicine whereas his group was on the thin basic reading books. DS was reading Roald Dahl books to himself when he was 5/6 and has always been ahead when it comes to reading, so should I ask for him to be moved up in class? DS said there was no assessment of his reading level and he was just arbitrarily put into a group. Or will I seem like a pushy parent and put his teacher off?
