Sorry this may be long, never posted in this section before please be gentle with me!!
In Year 3 my daughter was in the extended group for her English and the top group for her Maths.
Both me and my hubby were really proud of her. My hubby struggled at school and left with no qualifications and has worked hard later in life to get some qualifications so he really wants his children to do well.
We both worked hard with daughter at home with her maths and English. She loves writing poems and little stories and has a great imagination.
At the end of Year 3 my daughter just came out with "I have been moved down in my English and Maths" so I ask her when this happened "ages ago". So I was a bit annoyed as teacher never mentioned she was struggling.
So in Year 4 me and hubby put loads more effort into her English and Maths at home hoping that she would move up in her maths and English but it has made no difference. She is telling me her Maths work at school is "easy" and her maths homework she is finishing in no time.
She told me last night that she thought her Year 3 teacher didn't like her so that was why she was moved down in her Maths and English. I feel really frustrated as I know she is capable of more but when I have had a chat with her teacher they have told me she is at the level of her ability.
Do I get a tutor or do I keep the pressure on with the teachers and tell them she is finding the work easy.
