DS joined his school mid way through year 2, he has just gone into year 4 and has had the same teacher all the time. In the half of year 2 that we experienced, the teacher was off atleast half of the time but she got alot of complaints at the parents evening etc and we all thought she would maybe be better in year 3. She was, but she was still off sick maybe a third of the year at one and two week intervals. We've now been back at school 1 whole week and she is already signed off sick.
It would be OK if she would atleast send work in for the class but they have spent their time doing crosswords and word searches and just being supervised.
Am I right in being very mad?
We are in Germany and although he is still only in primary school - they filter them out soon and put them in 3 different kinds of secondry school. To get into the best one you obviously have to do well in the last years of primary, after that it's alot harder to go up a level.
