I am going with my sister to a meeting at her dd's (5) school. Bascailly my niece can been very stubborn and dig her heels in and she is also fairly bright. She is the youngest of 3 and all clsoe in age. Part of her behaviour stems from needing to compete with older siblings and I think also she thinks if she cant be the best at being good she could be the best at being class joker or the like iykwim.
Thing is a teacher in particular has had issues with her and has tried to label her with adhd. She does not have harldy any of the symptoms of this and it apears more to be with boredom and lake of adequate teaching, although being her aunt I am naturally protective.
They have held meetings about my neice without informing my sister or her husband and appear to have furmulated a 'special education plan' based on her having behouurial issues, bearing in mind she has not been formally assessed and she interacts and manages well in all other situations.
I need to help my sister with some questions and am also going to meeting with her, has anyone had simialr expereience or any advice please?
