Ds is sitting his SATS in May and iv never been so worried about anything in my life.
His school is in special measures and I have tried to move him school due to the poor standards but all schools are full.
He's struggling so much even when he's working his hardest and the school don't have much resources to help children out. They didn't have any extra help up until year 6 as there has never been the funding.
The comprehensive school he's wanting to go to has improved loads but it's also in an area where there is a lot of trouble from misbehaving students and I feel that if he doesn't pass these SATS he's going to be put with these and not be able to move on and get good grades.
We have tried all extra help after school and supported him as much as we can but nothing is working. I do wonder if he's not ready, if he was born a week later he would currently be a year 5 and that's why he can't keep up with his class mates and now there's nothing we can do about it. We cannot afford a tutor for home and there's nothing more the school can do so I feel between us we have failed him.
