Hi - we have just moved to ED from overseas and the kids are at Heber in years 3 and 4. Previously, they had quite different learning strategies to those here in the UK (particularly in maths). I spoke to my daughter's teacher generally about it today and we have an appointment booked to discuss the specifics tomorrow after school. Certainly no sign of dismissiveness at all; quite the opposite in fact. And there's a maths workshop for parents scheduled soon which I'm sure will help me understand better how I can help with homework etc. So far, I have been really impressed with the school - the children have been very welcoming to mine and the teachers have been really receptive to my queries and concerns.
