i posted on here a few weeks ago ,because my dd was struggling at school ,after being ignored for the whole of reception. When the new teacher started she flagged up that DD was behind and may be dyslexic ,she got her assessed by senco and when i went to speak to her last week ,she showed me the results and then basically said that DD will never catch up and that she will always struggle .I feel as though she has written off DD at just 6yrs old .When i asked if dd was getting any one on one support she said no ,she gets one half hour session in a group once a week and she is listened to read maybe once or twice a week . I just feel so sad for dd that her teacher thinks she is dim and cant even be bothered to get any of the multitude of teaching assistants to spend even 5 minutes a day with her . I have bought a hooked on phonics learn to read program and am going to do 15 to 20 minutes a day with her ,because she will catch up if it kills me
