Hello, wanted to recommend a fab primary school tutor to anyone who's looking. Betsy has been teaching my son for an hour a week for 3 years. At the start, even though his teachers considered him to be intelligent and articulate, he was working below expected level for his age, and really struggled to understand quite basic maths. His writing was also poor. But now, all his mock SATS (not had actual results yet) show him to be working at above expected level/at greater depth and Betsy's been instrumental in getting him there. She just really knew how to get through to him, and help everything make sense. She's kind, fun and really encouraged him to achieve what he's capable of. Apart from the improved grades, he's also finally confident in his own abilities. I couldn't recommend Betsy more highly. Her number is 07738 545030. Feel free to PM me if you want more details on this recommendation.

- Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

  I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining. And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend. So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure. I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.

  If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?

  I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy. We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.

  interesting read. We're thinking about the same things for our kids in primary school as well. One thing I don't understand about Charter ED is whether they stream / set kids based on ability. I got the impression from an open evening that it is done a little as possible. All i could find on-line was this undated letter - https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/_site/data/files/users/18/documents/9473A8A3547CCCD39DBC4A55CA1678DC.pdf?pid=167 For the most part, we believe in mixed ability teaching and do not stream in Year 7 or Year 8. The only exceptions to this are that we have a small nurture class for Maths. This is a provision for students who scored lower than 85 in their SATS exams and is designed to support them to acquire the skills to access the learning in mainstream class. We do not have nurture classes for any other subjects. We take a more streamed - though not a setted - approach in Maths and Science from Year 9 onwards. though unsure if this is still accurate reflection of policy, and unsure of difference between streaming and setting.
