I have had some issues with my sons school. Despite him being the youngest in the year being born at the end of August he is one of the brightest in year one. He is very bored repeating things he's known for over a year which is leading him to become disengaged, even often asking the teacher if he can learn something new. Reading has been a huge issue and in order to appease me they conducted a WRAT test. I believed part of the reason was to prove 'me wrong' like I was exaggerating his abilities. Anyway, none of us expected the results that actually came back. The school even saying they have never had results like it. The results came in about 6 weeks ago and the only change they have made is moving him on to free reading. One of the teachers even suggested I shouldn't worry as if they're bright they'll always be bright. What should I be expecting the school to do with these results? Should they be putting things in place for him? I just want him to be happy, engaged and challenged at school!! Any advice would be helpful thank you.
