DD is in year 2 at an Infant state school. She has always been a bit behind at school and has been assessed by an EP; some of the things that the report mentions are : don't fully process the content of the work, passive learner, moderate working memory difficulties, slow processing speed when understanding language, lack confidence as leaner, benefit from 1 to1 teaching, benefit from an environment without distractions needs to have all the information in front of her before starting a task and activities to be broken down in steps.
The current school have supported her as much as possible but since she has to change school for year 3 I was wondering if she will be better in a small, nurtering private school where there will be less distractions and perhaps more 1 to 1 support.
Any advice from people with experience of moving schools for similar reasons will be greatly appreciated. I know private does not always mean best but I can't help thinking that smaller classes will be a good thing for her.
