Long story cut short, DD managed OK up to now but problems at GCSE (did well in the end) getting coursework done etc. V disorganised, late for lessons. Very bright, understands the work asks good questions but is not completing homework or doesn't write enough, sat at a test with her head on the desk. Teachers say she hasn't the patience to think things through, if she doesn't know immediately she gives up.
She tells me she can't do it, a test an essay etc and they won't help.
I think they have given up on her, just had parents evening from hell.
Does any of this sound familiar and any suggestions?
