    That was a big miss. Fair play to Forest they put up more resistance than our lot did at home to them!

    May well be. There's talk of Ozil's lack of fitness and possibly a pay dispute - could apply to Tufan as well I suppose.

    Probably be making noises in the media then about wanting to leave.

    Robert Page going to lead Wales to the World Cup?

    I am sure the Scots on here might have their say though!

    Deserved - hope he plays as well for us next season. His midfield partner Regan Charles-Cook could be worth a look at too.

    Another Adrian Mariappa own goal rounds off a 4-0 defeat to Canada, and sees them qualify for the World Cup finals for the first time since 1986

    Capoue helped Villareal beat Bayern. It was an end to end game of football that I can't believe finished 1-0.

    An odd article really, with some equally odd comments from readers at the end.
    I'm not too sure what "Deeney’s petition to diversify the national curriculum more diverse" actually means - especially when he couches things in terms of "British teachers". The reality is that there is no 'British' national curriculum and the teachers he refers to as the "only 1 per cent said they feel empowered to teach diverse topics" are more than likely English, as their counterparts elsewhere in the UK certainly are able to teach diverse topics - not only able, but are required to.

    I do sympathise with him though - I experienced similar problems when I first encountered History lessons in Secondary school in Edinburgh. After one term of studying English History, and finding out that that would continue in the second term, I got myself into trouble by asking if we were ever going to learn about Scottish History. My reaction to being told that it wasn't in the curriculum got me sent to the headteacher for 'correction'. I was equally puzzled when we moved to Watford - I asked the History teacher at WBGS if Scottish History was included in the curriculum, only to be told that, if I wanted to study that I should move back to Scotland.

    Thankfully things possibly are changing though - and I do wish Troy luck in his quest.

    There is currently a big debate in NZ on the history syllabus in schools. The move to teach more NZ history has led to people asking whose NZ history, and also how much British history needs to be taught in order to understand colonial history.

    It is a bit of a contentious topic really - there is only so much time in the day and curricular changes generally mean either something has to be cut or at least watered down to accommodate them. Australian schools seem to manage with their cross-curricular approach - one that is made all the more complicated by the multitude of Aboriginal languages across the country, and the fact that Torres Strait Islander culture & history is also different from that of 'mainland' Aboriginal people.

    In Scotland, the whole curriculum was revamped in 2010 - in terms of History, the focus is now (very roughly) 70% Scottish, 20% rUK and 10% World. That appears to have appeased many of the older generations who were taught nothing but English History.
