She has always done very well academically and her reports have always been A's or A*s for everything. Tonight her new year 3 teacher barely had a good word to say about her and her results are all B's.
I know a B is still good, but for her this is very different, to go from all A's to not one single one. Her SATs at the end of year 2 were all level 3, except for maths.
Dh thinks that six weeks into a new term/year, the teacher doesn't know her, which is possibly true.
Reading this back it sounds like I'm obsessed with grades and levels. I'm not but I'm just quite shocked that a child who has been above average during the early years at school is suddenly average.
