Would volunteering be a conflict? by beeswing
x-no-archive: yes There's a private school locally that I wouldn't mind supporting, and they've listed that they need volunteers, including committee members for a committee I'd be interested in.

Exam prep disaster by Penny Gaines
R, the 10yo, will be sitting his 11+ tomorrow. UK readers will know that is the exam that decides which school he goes to next year. Will it be the fast-paced academic school - known as a grammer school - or the school for the less academically able. The exam tests "verbal reasoning", or how...
