Math

Christopher continues to be the star student in math class. His clear thinking and logical mind give him an excellent insight into the problems he is provided with. He works quickly and rarely needs assistance with his work even though it is at a much higher level than what is expected of his year group. He is currently preparing for an A-level math exam for the following month whilst other class members are completing their first year of GCSE coursework. Christopher is an exceptionally gifted student and should pursue his dreams for a math career.                                                                                                             Mrs.Gascoyne, 1+ Attainment, 1+ Effort                                                                                                  

English

English is a subject in which Christopher has multiple strengths and weaknesses. He finds it challenging to imagine things that have not happened and therefore his fiction writing skills are limited. He clearly has an extensive vocabulary, and uses this in all his work with barely any grammar and spelling mistakes. However he likes to describe things how they are; this means that he writes simply and to the point. We are trying to help him understand how to embellish his work and portray things in manners that are not immediately obvious, for instance for advertising purposes.  This is proving largely ineffective; Christopher finds imagining nonexistent events uncomfortable, similar to his apparent inability to lie. We are hoping that this will soon change as it becomes easier for him to control his disabilities.                                                                                                                                                             Mr.Smith 3- Attainment, 3 Effort

Art

During art lessons the children are encouraged to capture their imagination on paper, be it through emotions, past experiences or dreams. Christopher is rapidly improving with copying real-life articles, as can be seen in his new study from the previous month. He also seems to have a fantastic memory (sense of recollection) and is able to portray these with various methods taught to him. However, his drawing style is very logical; Christopher utilises mainly a Bauhaus style shapes such as circles and squares with his drawings. He is fond of using straight lines and calculated curves; often with the ...
