I really don't know what to do as my son is in year 1 and is really struggling with his reading and writing which is having an affect on everything else.

One minute the school are saying he's making progress with the extra help he's getting in school which is just extra help from the TA in class and extra reading twice a week. SALT have closed the case as feel he has improved and needs a break and will review/refer in june if any concern from the teacher. But his grades in his school report were appalling. And it wasn't helped by the fact that only Maths and English were individualised reports the other subject areas were a standard report of what they did as a year group and not what he personally did in these subject areas so I have no idea what he enjoys or how we can help in these other areas.They graded him 2's and 3's with two being below average and he actually got a 1 in English which was well below average.
