DD is in year 5. She is bright and enthusiastic, by no means a genius but works hard so reaps the rewards of that.
So far this school year she has floated through, I went through this half terms spellings which she already knew. I supervise her homework and she sails through it without effort. When I ask her what she finds difficult at school she said 'nothing'. Her reading age is 12.5 (age 9).
I have helped her find more challenging books to read, and done some more advanced maths but am worried I will confuse her with outdated methods so am considering getting a tutor.
It's parents evening next week. I want to point out that I don't think my DD is being challenged without being that parent and making the teacher feel I am critical of her.
(I have had run ins when she taught DD previously and didn't intervene when she watched DD being bullied so already feel she is icey with me... )
How can I approach this?
