Woohoo. Workable solution from the school. Was getting very frustrated with their ridiculous system where she was not entitled to any allowances for significant difficulties with handwriting & spelling because she's well ahead with maths, science & tech.

How does that even work? So ludicrous. You can't just take an average of grades and say that because she's slightly ahead overall, she's entitled to no support! When this breaks down to being well ahead in STEM subjects and way behind in humanities subjects!

I have been trying to point out the problem with this reasoning with increasing use of sarcasm & analogies. They still took her scribe away. I pointed out she would now fail everything which required writing. She just failed everything that requires writing.

I let this happen because I wanted them to see it now and not when she's doing her GCSEs. She's still learning and progressing because she's worked hard on what she's written and she knows what it says even tho no-one else does.

Anyway, it has worked. I've had a phone call saying that they are giving her a chromebook because when they can actually read what she is saying, it's quite good. I've only been saying this for 8 years.
