DD is top of her class in literacy and below average in numeracy. The teacher did not seem to be overly worried about this. This was just brought to my attention in a recent parent teacher meeting.
I brought her to Kip McGrath for a free assessment on Saturday and was told that she has learnt nothing in numeracy in Yr4 and is not ready for Yr5. They also said that schools are under great pressure to be positive about pupils and so will be overly positive in meetings with parents. I have enrolled her with KMcG.
My quandary is: should I go into the school and complain that my child has not learnt anything in numeracy this year. Will this mean that they will look unfavourably on me and my child? Also, I have a younger ds at the school in Yr2 can I request that he does not have this teacher in Yr4?
Any advice much appreciated,
