I've given up with my mediocre teaching at our school, so many parents who had children there have slatted the teaching and attitude when you show some concerns is too wishy-washy. Their recent Istyn report was "acceptable". Its a nice school and DS1 has some lovely friends. There are no good schools around either I can think of an alternative I can only see additional tuitoring the only option. His current teacher yr 2 hasnt a good reputation either and is on the sick alot. This is really concerning me. DS1 hasnt progressed at all in spelling or reading to a point where he wont do any homework and I see this as a slippery slope at this age.
I've seen a few tutors on websites but unsure how you rate them? I am looking for someone who can also assess his ability and tell me where his edcation is failing and if necessary report back to the school.
If anyone has done this how quick do you see an improvement (he is bright) I'm not concerned over the cost either.
I do need to drop him off as its not quiet enough here and younger siblings.
