One of the reasons that we wanted to create this website for you was to give you appropriate enrichment opportunities beyond the classroom. As part of your Sixth Form life we would hope that you will take an increasing interest in the world. As such, sometimes we will post news stories. Where subjects are controversial we will aim to give you links to the facts (the what is happening) and let you consider the differing opinions for yourself.
The civil war in Syria is of course one such emotive subject. It involves some very difficult issues, like the use of chemical weapons, and it has the potential to become a wider conflict. You really should know what is happening there. This BBC post gives a solid overview of events.
