Hi Its a long story but dd1 is 6 & just finishing yr 2. She has a strict teacher this yr who we heard horror stories about in earlier years at the school. My dd loved & thrived said teacher, loved the structure & the strictness until Jan. Since Jan she has been ill & only done 3 full weeks up til now. We are still seeking a diagnosis & the symptoms are very vague & glandular fever like although she has been tested for & it was negative. Dd says her teacher doesn't believe her & since having time off worries about school, about getting behind & getting into trouble. We have had a few meetings with school with the head & her teacher and on the face of it are sympathetic but when we have been trying to seek ways of making dd's life easier any ideas aren't really followed through. I accept that they are very busy & dd is one of a large class & don't think I am being unrealistic but I'm not too impressed. Last week after being told that dd was having trouble with her eyes & reading she was kept in one playtime for not doing her reading the evening before. She hadn't done it because she was unwell. This week I asked if she could miss PE if she was tired as she was struggling & I wanted to avoid her having any further time off through exhaustion. She wasn't asked how she was & no message had been given to the PE teacher so she was told she had to do it. There are so many instances of it. Have I got unrealistic expectations & am I being PFB about all this?
