What you have heard about CPI scores is not precisely untrue, but, shall we say, incomplete. In some individuals, those discrepancies may reflect learning disabilities, but the correlation is far from one-to-one. Interesting score profiles can be a good jumping off place for asking clinically-valuable questions, but they are no be-all end-all (and I say this as a particularly avid consumer and producer of assessment data)! In general, it is well to keep in mind the old assessor's adage to interpret the scores in light of the child, and not the other way around.

Good to hear that the school is so far attempting some differentiation for your DC. Sounds like you are keeping very close tabs on his school experience, which will help alert you should anything not be as he needs it to be.
