Went to speak to the head about DD's upcoming op and the time off she'll need. All fine. Then she said she had something she wanted to talk to me about.
Bear in mind DD has only been at school for 3 weeks and still isn't even full time. The head says that, as she is working at NC levels already and not Foundation Stage, she would like DD to move to Y1 at least for the mornings for Lit and Num, and then back to YR in the afternoons - with a view to perhaps moving up a year permanently at some point.
She is bright. Very bright. The head has never met such a bright 4-year old. But... She is a tiny dot and doesn't have a huge amount of confidence. But, whilst she can be taught with her peers, she will need work way above them for the foreseeable future and so will always be working on her own. In the older class she will at least have other children at her level.
We're leaving her until Christmas with the upheaval of the op, and then we'll have a chat and see what we're going to do, probably put her into Y1 in the mornings as suggested and see how she goes.
Very odd feeling.
