Yes-- what Cricket said.

It may be better NOT to skip if the demands are likely to become appropriate at some point 1-3 years away.

In cases like that, it can be better to look for ways to subject accelerate and differentiate within the placement rather than changing it completely.

It really depends on the details, unfortunately.

I'm curious what the school's logic is in saying that this particular student would NOT be a good candidate for a skip, however. I'd listen carefully to what they tell you, and see if it makes sense given what you know.
