Parents evening a few weeks ago. DD (year 4) doing fine, only thing we needed to do at home is to encourage her reading more widely. Maths doing well. During half term DD (who is not a weeper) started to cry and talk about how she felt that at school no one notice her and that even though she wanted harder work the teacher only concentrated on the clever table. Apparently there is a table of four girls who are on the clever table and they are the only girls who get the extended work ( her words). This was the first I had heard about any kind of streaming or clever table and just not sure on whether I should raise this with school or appropriate or how to handle it with DD. It is a private school (GDST), and the fees are high for us. For background DD is a 'good average ability' in previous years assessments. She is quite a resilient girl and as I say not normally a weeper so think there must be something going on..,but not sure how I move on from here.
Feel a bit disappointed in school in other areas and wonder if this is the normal way to manage streaming.....
