Following on from my previous thread I realised that although a once a week pullout for dd to do some open ended maths would be fab for her, it still wouldnt solve her boredom during other maths lessons.
So pie in the sky thought.....
if somehow we managed to afford it (not sure how!) and got dd a maths tutor. Then perhaps we could persuade school to pull her out of the majority of maths lessons in order to do the maths homework the tutor has set and she could also work on improving her creative writing or whatever school thought was appropriate. That way dd could progress at her own speed without boredom and fairly minimal disruption to the rest of the class.
So what do you think?
Would it be beneficial?
What are the draw backs
Would schools like that sort of thing?
How much would it cost and how can we afford it (lol!)
thanks
