Urgent - meeting with teacher

We have been making a fuss for a while that our Y3 DC needs to be stretched at school as we think he is capable of more, (and tells us he is bored) we are hopeful that he will sit his 11+.

We have been asked to come to a meeting this afternoon to discuss it. My mind is now blank and I wondered if you could help with what questions I need to ask?

We have asked to see the G&T policy but it is not forth coming and the SEN policy only touches on G&T.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Do they set for ability? What subjects?
Is he being offered extension work by every teacher in every lesson?
Does he have to ask for it? (and does he do so - do you know?)
Is he given differentiated homework? (ie does he get more challenging stuff than others in class?)
Do all his teachers know the issue?
Could ask for sight of extension work he is given
What level is he? In comparison to others in class?
THey should know this for him
Is he grouped within in an unset class with fellow students of higher ability?

Good luck
