Re-taking a year.

FEBRUARY 18, 2016

Has anyone thought about the possibility of letting children re-take a year? When I speak to colleagues who are labouring over assessments for our latest progress meetings, we quite often agree that allowing children to re-take a year during primary school might be quite a good thing. Here’s my take on the situation.
