Default A Good Beginning

Michael is a lively, sensitive, impulsive, verbally adept thirteen-year-old of high intelligence with a wide general knowledge that would put many adults to shame. However, he is severely underachieving at school and at times his behaviour is inappropriate.

He is uncoordinated, disorganised, untidy and clumsy. He has problems settling down to tasks at school and organising his books and equipment. His difficulties in fine motor skills show in his slow and laborious handwriting and his inability to copy writing at an average speed. He has a poor auditory and visual memory resulting in a lack of concentration, along with difficulties remembering, following instructions and planning ahead. He avoids sport at all cost as his lack of balance, co-ordination and insensitivity to spatial awareness makes him feel inadequate in front of his peer group.
