After speaking to my teacher about my idea we both felt it would be far more effective if I could actually show someone in my opening sequence who has Cerebral Palsy.
Mr Gower and I discussed some possibilities and we thought that I could either study Cerebral Palsy very carefully and have someone act as Bethany or I could find someone with Cerebral Palsy who would be willing to be in my opening sequence.
We decided that to have someone act as Bethany would be very difficult. I do not want my opening sequence to be insensitive and I don not want any confusion over what the aim of my opening is. So, I do not think that using an actor would be suitable.
There is a young boy in year 9 who has Cerebral Palsy. This could be a possibility but obviously I will need to speak to him and his parents to ask for their permission.
I have been into one of Brendan's lessons just so that I can see the way he behaves and I will be writing a letter to his parents tomorrow.
