🚗 Another one pupils have asked about in the past. When there is a solid white line and an emergency vehicle behind. What do you do? 🚗

Hoping that my year 13 learner drivers achieved what they wanted with their A'levels, Btec's and other qualifications today 🎓 I've been thinking of you all. Equally, if you didn't get what you wanted, remember there's more than one way to climb a mountain!! 😃 Your results do not define you! 💪🏻

One of my former learners is running the London marathon next year 🏃‍♀️ and raising money for the Teenage Cancer Trust in the process. I'm putting the link here in case anyone would like to donate and support:

Many thanks

In 2012, aged 15 I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma and treated successfully at Birmingham Children's Hospital. I am one of the lucky ones. During my treatment, I spent a lot of time on the Teena
