DD is in reception. She has some problems with her vision and gross motor skills. She can read and has good fine motor.
She has a plan and we had our first meeting with the SENCO and her teacher before half term. They seemed positive. Have had a teaching occupational therapist in to look at the playground and exercises that the class can do together that will also support her balance development. All great. I asked how her reading etc was going and no concerns raised (OT suggested some adjustments to help her, e.g. where she sits or a stand or her book) but they didn't say anything about education/learning concerns.
When we got her mid year report (which really just has a few words against each topic) she was Below expected or working towards on everything.
We have parents evening soon and you only get 10mins. I want to understand why she is below in everything.
We read at home with her and while she doesn't enjoy school books, she will read. She does love books. She can count to 30 and understands how to count to 100. She can do simple maths (adding 1 or 2 to numbers). She is a sociable and engaged girl- though doesn't seem to bave any particular friends in her class. She gets on better with older children.
How can she be below expected? I sounds like such a "one of those mums" but it feels wrong.
