DD is in yr 2 at a state school. She went for an assessment at a prep school today. They told us that her Maths was extremely poor and reading and writing were below par too. They suggested it would not be the best place for her.
DD is very shy but has a great vocabulary and reads well enough, phps 1 to yrs ahead of chronological age. Maths is an issue - her school have never highlighted it but I was aware that she's struggling and have asked school to assess.
I am absolutely floored by the refusal to accept dd. This morning I was pondering whether to accept a place at the school. Now I'm feeling that it's possible she might not get a place at any prep at all. Has anyone been in this situation, and does anyone know of prep schools in the north west that provide support particularly with numeracy catch up? Thanks for reading.
