My grandaughter is a very bright year one child. School want to move her next year to a yr 3/4 class with two of her peers. We all have concerns mainly for her social and emotional well being as she will cope educationally.
They say she is very confident but we feel thats because she is the brightest and oldest and will not be in a yr 3/4 class with children more than two years older than her. School are saying the head has final say, surely parents do. also what happens at yr6, can they move up early? She has not completed KS1 which is worrying, schools OFSTED said they were not pushing their brighter children.
