My DDs go to a small village school with mixed year group classes. One is 5.5yrs and the other 7yrs on Sat. They are currently in two different yr 1/yr2 mixed classes.
DD1 is probably not what you'd call G&T but after a year in a mixed yr1/yr2 class last year (when she was yr1) she had comfortably achieved level 2b across the board. Her then teacher jokingly said 'I don't know what they are going to do with her next year!'
Fast forward to this year and the answer seems to be 'the same again'! She is coming home with spellings & maths sheets that she can do standing on her head (more to the point - she has already done) and in fact the exact same sheets that her younger sister a summer born year one is bringing home.
I'm going to see her teacher this afternoon, I have no idea why I didn't think to post here before but does anyone have any advice for what I should ask? As I say, I don't think she is G&T but I don't want to see her coast for a year either.
Thanks.
