The iGCSE that only private schools can do is also a scam. 30% coursework for some GCSEs. State schools have to do 100% exams. This is highly unfair.
NOVEMBER 2024: Therese Coffey, asked if private schools - whose pupils get extra exam time at almost three times the rate of state schools - are gaming the system, replies: "You don't ask, you don't get".

My word of the day (and personal recommendation) is ‘snerdling’ (18th century): nestling cosily beneath the covers and holding off the day a little longer.

Hello Bluesky. I’m now retired after teaching English for 30 years. I’ve spent my time travelling around Europe, reading more and investigating family history. Here is a photo of my grandmother as a 3 year old on my great grandmother’s lap. Can you see the twins?
