Personal Statement

 
~ Everybody is a genuise but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing it is stupis ~ Albert Einstein
 
I am currently a year 12 pupil at St Roderick's High School, Yeatstown
I am studying GCSEs in: I.C.T, Construction, Art, Physical Education, Science, Maths, Religion, English language. I have targets of A’s A*’s and B+’s.
At the moment I am on track to achieve these however I am hoping to exceed my targets in Construction, English and Maths as these are my strongest subjects and I am working hard to make this happen.
I consider myself to be creative, I can use my creativity to complete tasks.
I can also work well as part of a team. I cope well under pressure and always try my best.
My attendance and punctuality have been of a good standard and I am currently at 95% attendance, I understand the importance of attending regularly and the impact it has on my education therefor I will work harder on improving it.
I have also represented the school in masses, outside performances such as Yeatstown speech festival and integrated days with Dunswilly.
Outside of school I am a member of the Dawson Young farmers club. I also enjoy working with animals.
In the future pursue a career in computer software engineering.

I would encourage Paddy to continue with this approach. Paddy currently working at Merit/Distinction level.
Paddy is making good progress in this subject. He is articulate and his written work is always of high standard. He listens in class and prepared well for his mock exam. With continued effort he should achieve well in his GCSE.
