Why didn't dds teacher tell me this earlier?

[outofhere]

We went to year 2 dds parents evening last night. All good, she is predicted level 3s across the board. Then the teacher said she has got real problems concentrating in the class, is unfocused and this is affecting her work. I didn't realise there was an issue until now and wish dds teacher had told me before, so we could have sorted this out earlier in the year. Why do you think it was ignored 'til now?

I have not wanted to talk to her before. I mean she has never raised any issues with me before.

I don't think you came across as pushy at all, OP, and I think that if this is an issue, you should have been told about it before. Of course you want your young child to be engaged at school and progressing, in all kinds of different ways.
