I honestly do not have an answer to your first question as I was not personally in such a position. It could be that the teacher was worried about being shown up or maybe the teacher had proper concern that the material in high school would be neglected.
My experience with high school was that the high school environment was generally miserable which affected my ability to focus. Most farm kids who had the ability to transfer to another district did so because they got tired of being treated poorly by other kids and in some cases teachers.
