I wonder if anyone can advise me. I pulled ds out of school during year 4 because he could not read or write and appeared to be getting no support, extra help etc in school just a lot of homework that the rest of his class were given. He could not do any of it. He would then get into trouble because he had not done his homework despite me asking him to be given more suitable work that he stood a chance of understanding.
He has been home edded ever since. Despite many many hours practice his reading skills have improved but he still has to concentrate and focus on each word and his writing is terrible however you can ask him how to spell any word and he is right there with the correct spelling.
Am I doing something wrong or could there be more going on? His maths is fine. He is wizzing through the GCSE book. He is 11.
