This is just a practical observation about how to maybe get something done easier, not any insight into how stuff is supposed to work.

If you want your kid moved out of a teacher's class, come up with a different reason for it than anything negative about that teacher. When you go in with a list of grievances about teacher A, the school is going to often feel that they have to address the problems but they'll probably still want to support the teacher and moving your kid will often be regarded as undermining the teacher.

However if you go in with a "we've always hoped to have teacher B because we've heard blabity, blah, blah good stuff about teacher B," you can get what you want and the school can feel good about it.

This is of course trickier to pull off mid-year, but not impossible if you can come up with something impersonal to base it on. "We've heard teacher B does a fantastic history project in the spring that little Johnny has always wanted to do."
