Wanstead Tesco: now it's January
Mystery delay in Wanstead Tesco opening
Bit odd, huh?
UPDATE 13 December: The Wanstead Guardian has some more details on this – appears the building not connected for electricity. Odd, really, you’d have thought Tesco had this new-shop-opening routine pretty well worked out by now.
Wrong time and place for adverts
Awful news from Leytonstone about a rape on a 12-year-old girl. Not sure the Google Ads on the story in the Waltham Forest Guardian are quite the thing (“Dirty girls in your area”). Wansteadium is alerting the paper.
Wanstead primary schools league tables
These are the primary school league tables, published on 1 December, based on the performance of 11-year-olds in National Curriculum “sats” tests. The %English, %Maths and %Science columns show percentage of pupils who met or exceeded the government’s level 4 target score. The aggregate column combines these columns, and the “value added” column shows how well a school assists its pupils, balanced for factors like social class, ethnic make-up, and affluence. (100 = what it should be doing, less = underperforming, more = overperforming.)
Full tables at the BBC at this page.
For ease of reference, a couple of South Woodford schools are included here.
