The following people have very generously offered to help and advise on education issues:

Primary School:

Clare – (primary school teacher) clarebalm@gmail.com 0771 7183096 or 810663.
I am happy to help children R-Y6 (or their parents) with questions, resources or ideas by telephone or email.

Linzi – ( primary school teacher) linzimpearce@gmail.com 07583 065200

Secondary School:

Annie – (secondary school) anniebobco@aol.com  07970 704556  
I understand that teachers will be sending work home and publishing online resources. Many parents may find the terminology daunting, and I do understand how many will be unable to help children with school work they have not seen since they left school.  I would therefore like to make myself available for parents to give help to their children in completing tasks. 

Ellen – (secondary school) mrsejthomas@gmail.com o7807 171584  or 810726
I’m a secondary School English teacher, specialising KS3 and GCSE but qualified to A Level so can probably help with that too if needed. English is my subject area and we tend to be very specialised in secondary, so I won’t be much help with maths for instance! However, I’ve got a very good network of secondary teaching friends across all subjects, so if I don’t know, I probably know someone who does! (Email contact is probably best.)

Report a Pothole to Devon County Council

A reminder that you can “Report a Pothole” to Devon County Council on www.devon.gov.uk/roadsnadtransport/report-a-problem

They like a photo to be added, but this is not essential. The pothole should be “over 40mm deep and greater than 300mm wide” (That’s 1 ¾ “ deep and 11 ¾ “ wide if, like me, you still work in old money!)

You get an email back with a ref number so you can check progress.

They also want to hear about blocked drains and flooding, overgrown vegetation, broken manhole covers and parking.
