oh wow thanks broomie i didn't know that
i was sort of brought up on a diet of murder she wrote, columbo and the flying nun haha!
fleur, i finished uni in newcastle but i did first year elsewhere; that's where i did fairytale. children's lit was introduced in my final year because the lecturer had got funding for the book centre.
i had weird year 6 cos our class was too big so we got spliced into half of year 5 and i actually thought i was year 5 until i left. Mom did too cos she's canadian and when got the letter for me to apply for secondary school just thought i was being hiked up a year... i'm on the cusp of intake dates... so in primary was probably treated the same as you!
had to do keyskills too... eugh... i got the three i needed but again my uni didn't care... especially my first uni, they wouldn't even accept them as a qualification, you weren't allowed to use general studies either!
