DD is not in the set she would have hoped for.
The school streams in science based on maths ability.
DD is just above average for her year in maths but is in the top 10% for physics and biology and is quite a bit above average in Chemistry.
The top set is equivalent to about 20% of pupils from what I understand.
All other sets (4 of them) are mixed ability with the exception of a small bottom set.
So am I being unreasonable in thinking that we will just have to suck this up and that the school will not make any special provision for her? Has anyone challenged something like this and actually managed to get a different result?
