“We are very disappointed that in some subjects the exam boards appear to have disregarded the carefully evaluated results provided by the school to the considerable disadvantage of some Year 13 students," she said.

Happy Birthday Sir John Everett Millais, 1st Baronet, born #OTD in 1829! It seems impossible to do his incredible & prolific career justice in just 3 images but here are perhaps those which represent Millais at his most intensely 'Pre-Raphaelite'. #MillaisMonday @Tate @BM_AG

John Constable was born #OnThisDay in 1776. He is famous for his landscapes, which are mostly of the Suffolk countryside, where he was born and lived. He made many open-air sketches, using these as a basis for his large exhibition paintings, which were worked up in the studio.
