Parents Evening - What should the school be doing?

[ScarletRed]

Hi,

I have just had parent's evening for my DS1.

DS1 is in YR2 very smart and operates above national average - does work with YR3 and his reports have always been great. But last night the school tells me that he isn't trying in class and hasn't progressed how they would like him to progress. He does the bare minimum in the classroom and pieces of work assigned to him in the classroom are never completed in the allocated time and they expect someone like him to have completed.

So I am wondering what the school should be doing to engage him more and get him to do required tasks, as they never answered this as there is never enough time to cover what you want answered and I have to go back in and make a second appointment.

Thanks in advance.

To me this is a sign of the times - my son is underachievingso what are the school doing wrong? 30 years ago it would have been my son is underachieving at school, what do i do to make him work?

They probably are doing things to try and help but ned your support too.

The feminization of education makes it terribly dull and uninspiring for boys.
