Should she continue in the mainstream education?
I am not a teacher, nor a doctor... However, I would look at how she does in other areas. If she seems "normal" in other areas and is not struggling in other subjects, I would guess that she's simply struggling to grasp what she is being taught. If so, you've got a challenge trying to find ways to make the subjects relavent for her. Do a thorough comparison of ALL areas of her learning before you make a snap decision. When I was in high school I scored a perfect score in math on my SAT exam... however I almost failed (D) calculus. I could tell you the answer to a very difficult math problem, but couldn't prove how I got my answer, even though it was right. And calculus is about showing HOW you got there. So make sure you compare all of her subjects. If she's only struggling in those two areas, maybe you need to explore a different approach to those two subjects until she grasps them.
Good luck!
