Seen these ads? This copycat company will slice off 35 percent of your tax rebate for acting ‘on your behalf’ - and take charge of your gov tax account, if you sign up. Make your own, direct claim; don’t be scammed, people - take care.

Useful symbol with distance-learning students preferring to submit MS Office typed assingments. But, students, your teachers know when you’ve used the spell/grammar check in English work.

🤔 Ever wonder what this symbol (¶) is called? 🤷🏻‍♂️ It’s not “a backward P” or “the paragraph thingy”; it’s a *pilcrow*.

Delta DID ‘flatten the grass’, emails show schoolsweek.co.uk/delta-acad… #Schoolsweek via @Schoolsweek. Ok, that’s enough: we’ve had ‘leaking buckets’ & some accused of ‘flattening the grass’. Such implicit use of English lexicon!

Academy trust backed 'flattening the grass'

In-service CPD sessions were incredibly unproductive; if only tutors were taught what we glean now.
