‘I used to take Joshua to his mainstream school,' says his mother. 'He
would literally (1) howl all the way down the very long drive. I used to
feel like a monster.'

She took Joshua out of the school on the advice of his teachers, but (2) hit
a brick wall with the local education authority, who wanted to place him
in a school for 90 children with a huge range of learning difficulties —
contrary to the modern expertise on (3) autism, which recommends
specialist care in small units.

Now, Joshua is (4) flourishing in a small school for autistic youngsters.


'It is costing us £15,000 a year but it’s worth it to see Joshua making
progress. He is a different child.'

The special needs school recently passed its first inspection from the
Office for Standards in Education with a (5) glowing report. Despite this,
the education authority has refused to pay for Joshua’s education there.

Receiving a diagnosis of a learning disability is a terrible blow to families,


and the (6) realization that you face years of fighting to (7) obtain the
education that will help your child is (8) devastating. Many parents
cannot face the (9) struggle and many children are denied the chance to
improve their quality of life.

You’re 16 and finally you can leave school! By now, you’re probably
sick of teachers, desks, tests and exams. But don’t just run for the exit.
You need to think carefully about what to do next.
If you want a professional career, you will need to go to university and
get a degree. To do that, you need to stay at high school for another two
years. But you needn’t stay at the same place. There are several options
in the district of Northacre.

St. Leopold’s School has the best pass rate of all the high schools in the
district. It offers a wide range of subjects in the humanities and
sciences. St Leopold’s is, of course, a private school, so may be too
expensive for you. But don’t worry, there are several other options if you
want to follow the academic route. Knowle Grammar School is a state
school, so there are no fees, and it has excellent tuition and facilities. It is
a boys’ school from the ages of 11-16, but from 16-18 it is co-educational.
But it is selective, so you’ll have to pass an exam to get in. If you’re
interested in going into Business, check out Wyle River Academy. This
school specialises in subjects like Business Studies, Management and
Economics. If you prefer the arts, look at the courses on offer at
Northacre College. Here you can study woodwork, art, textiles and
much more. Northacre College also offers a wide range of vocational
qualifications. You can do a 1-year certificate or a 2-year diploma in
subjects like electrics, plumbing, roofing and hairdressing. If you’d
prefer to work outdoors, look at Milldown College, where there are
courses in Farm Mechanics, Land Management, Animal Management and
much more.

A final option is to get an apprenticeship with a local or national


company. You will get on-the-job training, gain certificates or diplomas
and start earning straight away. But be warned - places are
limited! Find out more at the Jobs Fair on 26th May at Northacre
College.

i. A business coveted by commercial


companies
ii. Value brought by accurate forecasts
iii. Improved weather forecasts
iv. Little profit made from a profitable
market
v. How people avoid complying with the
rule
vi. A profitable market

It never rains
A. Weather forecasts on Hurricane Floyd, which has just hit North
Carolina, persuaded state governors along the southeastern seaboard to
urge more than 2 million people to evacuate inland. Since 1854, when
state-sponsored meteorology was born, weather forecasting has always
been recognized as a valuable business – one dollar invested in
meteorology is said to yield about $15 in terms of casualties avoided,
harvests saved and so on. But now that the Internet has made selling
weather information so easy, the market is being fought over as never
before.
B. Weather forecasts have become much more accurate over the past 20
years. Today’s three-day forecasts are as good as one-day forecasts were
in 1981. Ten-day forecasts are fast becoming the standard.
C. The more accurate the forecasts, the more they are worth. Sales of iced
tea multiply by five each time the thermometer rises above 15°C. With a
three-day forecasts, retailers can send their orders to their sunniest outlets
and soft-drinks companies can adjust their rate of production. Movie
audiences, medicine consumption and toll receipts all vary according to

the sky. In winter, power companies can save up to $100,000 a day if


they know in advance how high users will turn up their heating.
D. Throughout most of its history, weather forecasting has been done by
national governments, although, since any rain forecast for London
incorporates data collected from as far away as Fiji, they have to
cooperate. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), part of the
United Nations, organizes the free exchange of data among 185 member
states. But the more accurate – and therefore valuable – the weather
forecasts become, the more commercial companies want to get into the
business.
