Has anyone successfully managed to request a move to another class when there is a double class intake.
I have posted about dd2, a young age 5 in Y1 struggling with friendships. It was mentioned to her teacher who said she would take action but apart from that one day nothing further and she has not bothered to come back to me.
DD2 usually plays with children from the other Y1 class and talks more about them than people in her own class.
In addition her current teacher does not seem on the ball with her capabilities. Dd2 is not a genius but she is reading I would say 2 levels higher than she has been set, in fact they haven't changed her level since she was in reception. In addition her maths target is something that she can already do.
Now not sure is this is down to poor teaching or dd2's friendship issues having a big effect on how she is in the class room either way a change over should benefit.
Not sure how to best go about, do I approach the teacher again or do I go to the other class teacher who is the KS1 head. I am concerned they will just say no out of hand saying dd2 will just have to cope making friendships in her class and I have gained nothing apart from getting the teachers backs up.
I have heard some harsh criticism about her current teacher from parents who have had her previously, obviously would not mention this but does give me greater concern to try and get things resolved for dd2.
