DC is in reception. He is a summer baby so still 4.
When he started school, they gave this class point system to the class. Each day, some kids make it to gold. There is a big fuss of clapping etc.
DC has really set his heart to get to gold. Pre lockdown he was helping TAs clear up after lessons. He is bright, very good at maths, well ahead his peer.
Each day while at school, it was only the naughty kids who made it to school... behavioural issues, learning difficulties... so during lockdown, it was only the kids attending school who got to gold.
It’s painful to see him get his hopes up and never get it.
After I complained to school about home schooled children missing out, they said parents could award kids up to 3 points each day to be redeemed when school starts again.
AIBU to award him all the 3 points for each day of homeschool? He’s done all the homework, helped at home, been flexible around my work, etc.
