UK "rearguard" tuition - call for help



Dear Friends,

A number of the UK school students who protested over the last few weeks
have been suspended.
The suspension has seemingly been calculated to damage their chances in
their GCSE and A-Level
exams. There's already an organisation attempting to get these students (the
"ring-leaders")
reinstated but there's virtually no time left for negotiations - their exams
are pending.

I'm attempting to organise free academic tuition for these students, to help
them through
the exams and give their confidence a boost. This will also give an implicit
"thumbs up" to the protesting students above and beyond their enfeebled
headmasters. An hour or two of your time could do an awful lot of good in
this context.

If anyone is interested in helping out (and the tuition need not be
face-to-face; it can be
over the phone / email), please get in contact, letting me know:

* where you're geographically located (and N. Ireland is useful too)

* what subjects you can help with (be as broad as poss; humanities
department academics can probably cover most arts subjects at this level)

Please pass this message onto colleagues and other mailing lists

Please email if you need more information

Thanks!

Benjamin Halligan
