Ed Balls and giving weaker pupils private tutors

The Government is hoping to recruit 100,000 former, current and retired teachers to become private tutors and give 121 tuition to failing and weaker pupils.

I wonder where they are going to get 100,000 teachers experienced in 121 tuition which is a different skill from the challenging job of trying to teach a classroom of 20 children.

That is a lot of people!

First exam result

One of my students reported her exam result today.

In her previous maths exam before me, she got in the 30s as a percentage. She has now got 87% and has passed the course with flying colours, and can proceed to the next year's course.

I am really pleased for her. Congratulations to her for all the hard work she put in!
