Hi Rachibaby - I'm sorry things are going so poorly. frown I don't have a BTDT for you, as my DS4 is still in preschool. However, I would comment on a couple of your points. As to how long to leave this, I wouldn't leave it any longer. I would try to set up a meeting with his teacher first, then go higher up if nothing is addressed re: something to challenge your DS.

Did anyone at the school know ahead of time what level your DS is? Maybe contact that person again for assistance.

Is there any chance of acceleration to a higher grade or higher math/reading groups? He seems to be well beyond reception in terms of academics.

Good luck.
