Iam being really boring today! On one thread Iam worried about dd being on the not clever table and here iam worried about my ds who is 12 and just started senior school.
He found yr6 last yr really frustratibg as he is way ahead in maths and all the work was revision really last yr for the sats. He was really looking forward to the challenge of senior school.
However he is finding maths as boring as ever. It is all stuff he done ages ago and he is desperate for something to get his teeth into.
The class is not streamed so there are some kids stuggling and ds has to be hald back waiting for these kids.
Now this is a private school so surely he should be able to work at his own pace, isn't that partly what we are paying for.
The problem is he is almost gcse standard and i can't see them letting him do this.
But whats the alternative let him be bored stiff in maths for the next 4 or 5 yrs.
