How much do they actually need "stretching2, really?
He's 5 and in yr1 and apprently at stage 2b for literacy and maths...
He used to be interested in school work and talked about stuff he'd learned but now says he's bored and he doesn't want to go back.
There's nothing else going on- we've had other issues too (all resolved very well by the school)
He's bright and interested in stuff at home- especially science and mainly human body books..
He's fine really, but increasingly disillusioned with school.
This has never coome from us- i've been quite impressed with what he has been learning.
Teacher is lovely and all esle is good.
What shall i ask for/say?
Do they ever mix up classes so the brighter ones can go with some of the other years?
DO i sound pushy if i ask for that...
does gifted and talented apply to 5yr olds and am i being a complete twunt to even say the words....
feel a bit lost- not sure what i want except ds1 to be engaged and happy at school.
I knwo that there is a system and a way to manage the school etc and realsie we need to fit in, but i don't really know what is and isn't acceptable to ask for somehow.
anyone got any advice?
