Shenna goes to one of the best International school and he is attending this for two year now. He would be in grade 1 from august when the school reopens.
He also goes to kumon and we have seen it has been a tremendous one year last 12 months for him. He has learned to read, write, do simple sums and subtractions and more importantly have gained some confidence and have made many good friends.
So our we were confused when we heard he might need extra support to learn english in grade 1 and this decisions will be told us in sept based on the evaluation of his class teacher in grade 1.
We dont want it for him and we know in our heart that he doesnt need it. He is still sky and for him, talking friends from many countries and teachers whith many different accent must be a huge challenge by itself and he seems to have managed it well.
We are praying that he willnt need it.
We arent convinced also that he needs it since for the extra support he would be given, there would be charges and it somehow tells me that no matter what they would want certain number of students identified as those who would need support so that they pay to support the teachers on the role.
Hope again that shenna wouldnt need any special support.
