Ooh, I always think that I like the smell of the farrier, for a ex-rider it's such a nostagic smell. Then I just start choking and realise how awful it is!Mortgage Apr 18 £417,894 BTL Mar 18 £162,857

When the students do what used to be called coursework staff in school mark it. Then staff in each school get together to agree on marking standards/strictness. I am working for an exam board (second job!!) And what we do is ask the school for a sample of their coursework and then check they are marking in line with what the exam board thinks.
If they are then all good and we agree their marks. If not then we check another sample and if that is wrong too then the school gets its marks for a given subject adjusted.
I feel sorry for some of the schools because they lack specialist teachers in Science if the school is very small and then it is awfully hard to mark properly.
Gosh that sounds very 'thorough'!!
I imagine you need to be very patient and not mind a bit of red tape!Mortgage starting balance 2011 ... £170k today £1.5k

Education is beset by red tape.
Just spent £12 in sweet shop, £23 on 5 pairs of boy jamas and £16 on toys which comes out of the children's money.
