I don't have direct experience, but I have a cousin who is 6 weeks older than me, but because of school cut offs was a whole grade ahead of me. He always struggled in school, he was just so much younger than the other kids. I never struggled and I actually had undiagnosed learning disabilites. I honestly think it had a lot to do with me being older in the grade. I personally would take him out and have him try again next year. Hugs, I hope you figure out whats best for him.
