Teachers should not be naming kids.   I would ask is there anything we can do to work with them at home.  Any suggestions for books, textbooks, videos, etc.

What can we do to support you to improve things.[/quote]

It's totally fine for a teacher to say "He used to sit next to Alex and they both had a hard time paying attention but now he sits next to Dylan and they work very nicely together and encourage each other." [/quote]

We are told we should NOT mention other students by name, and I won’t do it anyway. Parents have asked, and I simply state I won’t / can’t mention other students.

yeahhhh, one person might think it's perfectly fine to name other students if it's not necessarily in the negative, but I'm not going to do that. I can give you all the information you want about YOUR kid, but I'm not mentioning any other names. In the example scenario, I could convey that by saying that your child previously sat with one student but they were distractions to each other, so I moved the seats and now your child sits next to a classmate that's a much better fit.
