My child has just started year 1. At the end of reception his report gave him something in the region of 12 "exceeding expectations" and the rest were "meeting expectations". So we thought he was doing well.
Just had parents evening and been told that he's "trying his best" but teacher was very non-committal about how well he was doing. He's only achieved a couple of items on the (huge) maths competency list and they said he might have to move a group for literacy if he didn't improve.
We came away feeling a bit flat. Is there such a difference between reception and year one that he can go from doing very well to (apparently) struggling? Of course we are doing all we can to support him, but at the same time don't want to spend lots of time doing work at home when he could be out playing etc.
