I knew my DC (5) is extremely clever but had it confirmed at parents evening when the class teacher said that DC has been going to the Year 2 classes for extra tuition and lessons to meet DC's ability, and in many instances DC is exceeding these lessons.
I asked the teacher what I could to do help DC and all they could do was wax lyrical about how fantastic a student they were and to just 'keep doing what you're doing' now im not doing anything besides providing books for DC and sitting with them and answering any questions they have as they read through it.
Should I be doing more?
Never mind that should I have been told that DC was learning at year ahead of themselves before parents evening?!
