Thanks for the replies. I agree that in person would be better but I'm wary of overloading the teacher so early in the school year when presumably everyone wants to talk about their child.

I know I've been lucky so far and it was actually her previous teacher who recommended her being tested in the first place so that it would be easier to advocate for harder maths.

I'll give it a few weeks, she'll have had a few assessments by then and her teacher will know her a bit better.

Longcut, I hate being potentially thought of as pushy but if I'm not my sparkly, enthusiastic daughter gets belligerent. She's not so gifted that she can't be catered for at school and the modifications, IMO, arent too drastic.

My DD isn't up for anything extra at home and is busy with a whole heap of sport and music.

Good luck Puffin!
