Hi - I'm posting here as well as another thread for teacher and parent views.
Ds end of yr report results are
Out of 13 areas
8 mastery ,
4 secure
1 developing. - writing
Overall
reading A good
Writing B - expected
Maths A -good.
We live in London. Just looking at the academics - do the children who go on to private schools from state schools (with bursaries) have all A's or mastery - he is very talented and all rounder - music, sport , attitude to learning etc . But we would be applying for bursaries and I don't know if his writing level will be a problem.
We will not be using tutors as I couldn't afford to sustain that. So it would be my help at home and I think I could get his writing up to secure. - but maybe not as secure as the other areas. IYSWIM.
Because of where we live Our realistic state school options are pretty dire and my heart breaks that he is likely to go there. I know it depends on the exam but in practice what are his chances?
