DS1 has just gone in to Yr8. Good general all-rounder in top groups and received a good report last term, with a few minor negative comments, most noticeably in English, but marks were reasonable so no concerns. From comments made throughout the year, there did appear to be a bit of a clash between teacher and DS1, but nothing major.
He found out yesterday that he has been dropped down a group for English, along with two others pupils. We've talked to DS about this, and we're not unduly worried, but we are a bit surprised that we have had no communication from the school to indicate there was a problem before he was dropped down a group - is this normal at secondary school?
