So I knew it was going to be bad- but shocked at just how bad it is ! Behaviour is ok but every subject is way below the year average (selective school) I mean every subject ! All say he’s not engaged, has the potential but is very disorganised. We met with headmaster before these reports came out as we were concerned and he has been asked to get up to speed over the summer including taking in revision notes and past papers to prove he’s done it. I can see the battle over the coming weeks ... how do you persuade someone that lip service is no longer going to cut it and real action by then is required without nagging and causing a negative energy for rest of the household.please tell me it’s possible to turn a grade 2 into a 6 in the next year ! I have been trying unsuccessfully since year 7 to get him to start trying - I feel like a failure but equally can’t see what else I can do
