Had a great parents' evening yesterday.
DD (8) is still doing very well at maths, reading and writing (4C in each area), and it appears that DS (5) is also "a bit clever"
I'm after a bit of advice really. DD is going to be (and has been for the last year) in a mixed year group class. She, and half a dozen others from her year, will be year 4's in a year 5 class. Though I think she'll manage work wise, I'm worried about her socially. She is best friends (inseparable) with a girl the year above. Whilst this doesn't pose a problem now, I'm worried for her when her friend moves into a different class (we don't know yet if they will be mixed until they leave for secondary) She's not really had chance to gel with her whole year group, as the classes have mostly been mixed. I'm just worried about what will happen when they're finally all taught together. This happened to me at Primary and I felt lost during my last year at Primary and had no friends at the start of Secondary
Anybody been through / going through similar or any ideas how I can help avoid this??
