Sorry long!
Firstly dds new school is otherwise fantastic. it is this one point which peeves me. I am debating approaching so thought I would check here first.
Dds school has something called recall. If you have been disruptive or rude you are recalled until 5pm (school finishes at four)
I have no issue with this but they also use recall if you have not finished work in the time they thought you should or not got past a certain amount in a test.
Depending on the recall teacher they can either finish classwork or revise the test which I again don't have as much issue with or sit in silence for an hour.
Those who have been disruptive and those who have scored badly in a test are in recall together based on the idea that if they haven't scored enough they haven't revised enough.
This is really working sen dd up and making her very anxious. Shes very good in school but is often slow to finish work due to sen or scores low in tests. Especially when her spelling is awful in English and the test is to spell in her languages class and is getting in a state about it before tests. Essentially she could end up punished for having sen.
It also means that because of buses that she potentially could be left waiting an hour at her connection point for the bus in the dark alone. She is 13 but with learning difficulties so more vulnerable.
I am torn between telling her to suck it up and feeling I am being pathetic to having a word
Any ideas
