If you have a child going into Year 11 and would like some help setting them up for success in their GCSE exams, please get in touch for an introductory conversation.

Having completed my GCSEs last year (nine grade 9s & two grade 8s), I believe that getting organised and taking a structured approach to studying can make an enormous difference. Parents tend to focus on content and seek out conventional tutoring from subject-matter experts to support students in particular subjects. While this is important, aspects such as planning and study strategies are often overlooked. Getting these things right represents half the battle in a student achieving the best grades they can get in their GCSEs.

I offer one-off sessions to help set up healthy working habits for the year ahead or weekly tuition to provide on-going support. I can combine this with more conventional content tutoring in Maths (including Further Maths), Science, History and other subjects.

  Thought others may be interested to help a local community centre help others. My bank account offers roundup and it’s been growing all year. As well as treating myself or putting it towards a train ticket to see my family I’ve made a donation to the Albrighton. They can use donations at any time but I hope my donation will go towards the Christmas hampers. Can you support them so they can provide Christmas hampers? https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunityfridge?utm_id=1&utm_term=M22JKQb6W A donation of £50 will pay for a hamper to feed a family over this Christmas period. A donation of £30 will pay for a hamper to feed someone living on their own over the Christmas period.

  I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.

  Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !

  That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
