to think that when writing a school report stating a child lacks concentration in writing then...

[mumbar]

you should concentrate on spelling said childs name correctly!!

It is spelt 3 different ways in 4 lines - only 1 of those is correct.

Absolutely.
Offer your services as proof reader. It infuriates me when teachers don't double check reports for accuracy.
I'm a bit less fanatical about notes in reading journals, but names should always be accurate.

I wouldn't pick fault in spelling per se as I'm dyslexic.

The name is printed at the top, The first word of the attitudes etc bit is his name spelt wrong - albiet it the traditional spelling

Its even more amusing that its spelt wrong in the sentence that says "DS lacks concentration when completing written tasks" Really

Yes and then... when I'd had my little smug, I'd focus on my chid lacking concentration...

I think you should raise this with the teacher - but don't expect to be popular.

yanbu. But personally I wouldn't bother making an issue of it.

Our Head checks every child in the school's report (over 500 children). Maybe your school should start this! I would mention it, I think it's quite disrespectful.

Goodness. Is it an unusual name?

No not an unusual name at all

I'm not going to mention it, its obviously just a mistake.

My DS has problems with writing - his spacial memory is poor as are his fine motor skills. He finds it hard and lacks enthusiasm which means he doesn't put as much into it compared with maths - which he's extremely good at apparently!
It is something both the school and I are working on - and I read him the report.
