Re: Clap for Carers returns this week and will include 'heroes'

Ravenstone Street closed to traffic - Ritherdon Road to get the squeeze?

This is probably a good idea for Ravenstone School but it'll have a big knock-on effect for Ritherdon Road The scheme will see through traffic deterred from accessing Oakmead Road and Ravenstone Street.

Re: Does anyone have any clarity over A level exam grades?

I also understand that mocks and then actual results for individual subjects from previous years will be taken into account. I don't envy teachers at all.

Re: Friendship status quo upset

It could be that the new addition is acting a bit bolder than usual as she feels a bit intimidated, I have seen that too. I bet that you all have so many in jokes etc. that she spends a large amount of time feeling very left out. Just a thought!
