...ds1 (just turned 8) has been in year 3 at his new school since Nov last year.
I am having a meeting with the HT and SENCO on thursday morning wrt ds1 and provision for him....he is currently being seen by the child dev paed who has asked for an EP report and for him to be seen by the spld team too.
Ds1 is a bright, well behaved boy who had significant developmental delay when he was a baby and who has struggles with literacy since its formal introduction in year 1.
I removed him from his last school due to the lack of help he recieved and the bullying he endured because he struggled (was called "slow", "thick" etc etc)
He is happy at his new school - which is great - but he is not really making any progress.
I have got his levels from his teacher this morning (prior to the meeting) and they are:
reading - was 1b now 1a
writing - was 1a now 1a
maths - was 2b now 2a
So if I understand it right, since November last year;
He has gone up 1 sub level in reading (and now is 2 years behind his peers).
His levels in writing are unchanged.
He has gone up 1 sub level in maths (and is now classed as average).
Thats not good is it?
I knew his level for maths would be better than his reading and writing but am shocked he has made no progress at all with writing and only 1 sub level in reading....the HT says they are "really pleased" with this.
How can they be "pleased" ???????
Am I overreacting??? ds1 has had no help since starting this school (aside from very patchy 20 min of 1-1 once per week)
