My son is in Yr 4 and has a music lesson once a week at school during lunchtime. He has his sandwiches first on this particular day then has to get to one of the classrooms for his lesson for 12.30.
Sometimes he forgets to go despite me reminding him in the morning. His teacher says she'll remind him if she remembers, but that she's not about at lunch time. She says if he really wants to go he'll remember himself.
Thing is he's only 8 and sometimes just forgets and gets caught up with playing with his friends. He does want to go and seems genuinely upset when he realises he's missed it.
The lessons are actually for Yr 3 but I asked if he could go because the school seems to offer little music provision and it dawned on me that he was never offered any music lessons when he was in Yr 3. So they agreed but made out they were doing me a favour.
Should an 8 yr old need to be reminded to be somewhere at a particular time? I just wish the school would check if he was at the lesson and go and get him if he's not. AIBU?
