PROUD MUMMY ALERT*PROUD MUMMY ALERT
We just got Josh's SAT results today.
If you have been a follower for a while, you may have seen the tale of Josh and his schooling - if not, lets just say it hasnt always been easy! After being in a small private school that, despite asking, kept saying that Josh didnt have any learning needs at all and was just lacking in self-control (!!! - we are relatively strict with him, so I was very insulted by this!), we moved him half way through Yr 5. One week in the new school and his new teacher suggested (very nervously!) that we might consider getting him tested for ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) - at the end of Yr 5 we had a postive diagnosis - yep he is ADD, he is also gifted and talented.
Well, we had his results and he is Level 5 for Maths, English and Science (they only do the 3) - Level 4 is achieving expectation for age and level 5 is exceeding expectation for age!
As you can imagine - there are some very jolly happy people in our house at the moment! I am so proud of him - and whats more (and waaaaay more important) he is actually proud of himself! Can you just feel the warm glow coming from this post?????
OK gonna go and ring people now! Lol x
If anyone else has kids waiting for results (whatever exams they may be) - then I hope you are as happy with your results (whatever level they may be!)
