ABSTRACT
‘I have dyslexia and ADHD. I have always had a problem concentrating in class. I like maths, it’s easy. The teacher gets angry because I always shout out the correct answer. She tells me that I have to show my working out in my book because in an exam I will get extra marks, but what does it matter if I get the answer right? I’m crap at English, my writing’s scruffy. I don’t like writing. The teacher showed me that my writing was better than some others in the class but he missed the point, I can’t write! The teachers keep getting annoyed because I won’t write and I mess about in class. When they shout at me I tell them to “F**k off” so I get suspended. I don’t mind staying home, at least I don’t get all that shit they give me at school.
