I have a question about progressing between grades/class years.
If a child is performing below expected level, why arent they expected to repeat a year?
What is the big fuss about them being in secondary at 11 and doing GCSEs at 16?
I did not study in this country and I probably am not looking at the right place, but I cant find any explanation for why 'holding back' a child isnt possible.
I understand the bit about the govt having to fund 4-16 yrs education, but if my child reaches secondary at 16, you can stop funding their education, but atleast let my child learn everything at their pace..
What am I missing
