Call me a cynic but I thought it was an attempt to avoid this years Sats boycott.

Science was scrapped after a general review. The group reviewing concluded that "enhanced teacher assessment" would work better in establishing "whether pupils have a firm grip of the practical nature of science and the skills to develop and apply scientific understanding"

Thanks for that information Mitasol. It really is a shame that science, certainly within the youngers year's does not seem to be as valued as it once was. Luckily Midget and alot of other's I suppose will get much more opportunity to study science once at big school :D

CM-Did you hear what Amber just said? How very dare she call the beloved good luck care bear a "horrid old fat green bear"



I am consulting solicitors - I said no such thing.
Might have thought it, but certainly didn't say it.

Thank you for your consideration about the migraines. 3 identified causes in me - busy graphics like that funny spinny brown thing you had/flashlight photography things on the news etc; karate (now given up) and hypoglycaemia - hence, I eat a lot!

Ok, call off the legal team then, but are you sure you are allowed to use words like 'fat' in a public forum? I think 'bears of size' sounds better.
