It always amazes when a teacher in elementary or even high school does that! The kid is IN SCHOOL TO LEARN! That teacher has now given that kid an excuse to wonder why they are in school! Maybe make them hate it because they are so dumb…see where I’m going here…my grandson has adhd and the teachers seem not to care and guess what…HE HATES SCHOOL, EVERY PART OF IT, EVEN RECESS! Great article!

Are you based in the UK or the US or elsewhere? I hope you find a good tutor for your grandson so he can catch up on some courses and have a more personalized teaching that would suit his needs.

That breaks my heart. A few members of my family are public school teachers here in the US, teaching science and math for students with unique abilities, and they do take time for their students. I hope there is still a room for your grandson to learn to love school. But if he does not, there are many different ways to learn too.
