Depending on what school or university you are at, you will have around 3 to 5 weeks of vacation, a perfect amount of time to gorge on Easter eggs!

When I had started my undergraduate studies in Israel, I was 17 years of age and had little to no idea what I wanted to do with my life.

Modern Languages Oxbridge Interview

The year I applied to read French and German at Cambridge University. I was probably one of those who stood out the most, but not necessarily for the most advantageous reasons. To begin, for A-Level I had chosen a peculiar combination of subjects for atypical of the average modern languages applicant: French, Mathematics, Chemistry, German and Biology certainly did not align [...]

Geography GCSE and beyond

Geography is an incredible subject. Ok, I might be a little biased (having done a GCSE, A Level, Degree, Masters, PhD and then lecturing in Geography!), but I believe that Geography is an excellent subject to study from GCSE level and then beyond. The task of choosing what subjects to take for your GCSEs can be an incredibly daunting one. I [...]

Why is it important that all students learn about computer science?

The National Curriculum published last year includes a programme of study for computing. It outlines the computer science courses that all children from the ages of five to sixteen will now be taught in school. This starts with learning the basics of algorithms and creating simple programs in Years 1 and 2, and culminates with older pupils learning to develop [...]
