- Background
Priya is an 11 year old girl who lives with her family in Birmingham. She is a middle child with 2 sisters, one older, one younger. Priya’s father works as a Warehouse Manager for a clothing company and her mother works in the Cadbury chocolate factory. She attends a grammar school in Birmingham. Priya’s favourite subjects are history, English literature, chemistry and biology. Priya has a large extended family, and spends a lot of time with them. Priya is a very sensitive child who is aware of conflict and any family problems.
- Interests and Activities
Priya enjoys drawing, knitting, playing football and going out with her friends. She also spends most of her time playing the PS2 and watching tv. Priya also plays rugby in the school team. Priya is also very interested in technology and wishes she could have more of an understanding of new technology around.
- Difficulties at Home
As Priya’s parents both work she is aware of the need to entertain herself in their absence. She therefore, takes an interest in arts and crafts and playing with her sisters. Priya does wish she could spend more time with her parents, but understands why they have to work, and doesn’t resent them for it.
Priya does sometimes argue with her younger sister; this will often occur over a disagreement about what programmes to watch.
- Technology
Priya is always keen to learn about new technologies, however, the family home does not posses much technology. She is a quick learner and would like to have resources which would help her with her homework and to research school projects.
- Other
Priya wants to be an astronaut, although her love for books often makes her think that she would like to be a librarian. Priya’s worst fear is the breakdown of the family unit.
