Dd is in the top Maths set in Year 8. She has been saying this year there is very little actual teaching, they spend most of the lesson working independently from a text book and she's finding it quite dull.
I did ask the school about this and they say it's usual for the top set to work independently to practice and consolidate the work without it being spelt out by the teacher.
Is this usual? I thought the more able students would be challenged and extended a bit more.
