    Thoughts on WWI core thus far?

    What are your thoughts, guys? I know we're only one week in, so what are your first impressions? Personally I'm finding it very different in comparison to what we did for preliminary. In prelim it was more politically based, now it's more militarily based, which I'm very much disliking. I'm...

    Initially I wanted to do The Breakfast Club but I feel as though I won't be able to relate this to her poetry. Can anyone give me even small ideas as to what concepts it explores and possibly which related texts would be suitable. Thank you in advance

    Myth or fact?

    Today in maths my teacher told our class that school's only send BoS each students rank in a given subject, along with the performance of the cohort, where the BoS gives the student a mark based on their rank amongst their cohort.

    The Breakfast Club as a related text?

    Hey, I was wondering if The Breakfast Club (yes the best movie ever) would be a suitable related text for belonging? Yes, as you can tell it is one of my favourite movies but my interest in doing it doesn't stem from my mere love for the film, obviously. I really think it has a lot of potential...
