There’s a real risk here to your daughter - your daughters’ teacher sounds at least reasonable, but ideally we wouldn’t force any kid to the lowest common denominator. Only reason to do so is cost, as it’s harder to manage more classes with different skill levels. When I was learning English and was well ahead of my classmates due to similar at home involvement, at school I quickly lost interest and wouldn’t bother with assignments, leading to poor grades. This phase passed and I ended up doing fine, but no thanks to the teachers involved. Could have gone the other way just as easily and then from an advanced learned I would have become a problem one.
