Sitting at parents evening last night was an absolute pleasure!
When Starlet started at the end of year 1, she was so far behind in Maths that they couldn't level her. She couldn't even recognise individual numbers or sequence them up to 10. Fast forward two and a half years and she is now working slap bang in the middle of where she should be for her age - currently working on adding three digit numbers together. She's also retaining it - they did a progress test recently covering stuff they've done since September and she got 80%!
Just thought it was worth a mention in case any of you still in your first couple of years of placement are worried about progress at school - there can come a lightbulb moment when things just click!
