There are a number of auditory issues that aren’t picked up by a standard hearing test. Especially an nerve based auditory processing issue, or problems processing auditory symbols, like language, in the brain. No matter what you are experiencing, don’t assume that hearing isn’t entering into it. Did you know that students with auditory processing disorders also have trouble writing? Anyway, be safe and see an Audiologist, don’t take the school or GPs word for it. Remember, there is always more to a situation than is on the surface.
