DD has just started at a lovely secondary modern & has found out today that she's in set 6 (out of 9) for maths. I'm unsure whether to leave well alone or to query it with school; her sats score for maths was 112 & she missed out on a grammar place by 10 marks (without any tutoring) so I would have thought she'd be in set 2 or 3 at least, given the "top" set have been creamed off by the grammars?
I don't want to sound precious or be "that parent" but I suppose I'm wondering if there has been a mistake? I've told her if she thinks she's in the wrong set, the best thing to do is work really hard & show school that she is capable of being in a higher set.
Would you query it or leave well alone? Thx
