I've just been called into a meeting with my sons new primary school teacher about his performance in English or lack of it in his teachers eyes- it's been two weeks into the new school year and my son has already expressed he is finding it hard. I hired a private tutor last week and the day after his lesson his work had improved dramatically to which I discussed with the teacher this afternoon. I have asked the teacher what they are going to do to help my son get back to the level he should be at but have been told there is no funding for this so I have replied that the only solution then is for me to pay for private tuition which I find absolutely disgraceful at primary school level, my son is eight years old!!!
