I am running out of P2 mini mocks.
Only one answer for it...
A few more coming for the final four days, will share on here if helpful.
AQA seem to love travel and weather, so I'm sticking with these themes 🤣

"Pretending" in An Inspector Calls
The words "pretend" and "pretence" appear 12 times in An Inspector Calls.
JBP uses them to reflect the insincerity and moral failure of the Birlings' society.

'The Struggle with Writing Stamina'
"A lack of writing stamina characterises an inability to write independently for a sustained period. And yet, it probably characterises a broader range of behaviours that attend writing (and learning)."

Never tell your daughter that when a boy is mean or rude to her it's because he has a crush on her. Don't teach her that abuse is a sign of love. Make your daughter so capable that you don't have to worry who will marry her! Instead of saving money for her wedding day, spend it well on her education and most importantly, instead of preparing her for her marriage, prepare her for herself! Teach her confidence. Teach your daughter economic independence so in the future, she can have a partner, not a master. Teach her it's not about being beautiful. Teach her to be bold. Be strong. Be real, in a world full of fake. Let's redefine beauty.

Diana, at 19 years old with her friend Camilla. A day at the races, watching Diana’s then fiancé Charles compete. All the time, Camilla was fucking Charles.

Grant an inquiry of the Ofsted inspection at Caversham Primary School - Sign the Petition! chng.it/sNnpQjQS via @UKChange
I cannot actually believe this, what on earth is happening 😢
This is utterly hartbreaking. There HAS to be a complete overhaul of education but especially the Ofsted system. Where is the accountability for the wellbeing for headteachers in the system?

The growth in Andrew Tate-related issues in schools has been really worrying to see, and some of the detail in this @mr_englishteach piece is so sad to read.
Some really practical advice from Mark and those interviewed to try and tackle the issue.
