Gardengirl Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 OH has just settled down to do his homework for tonight. There are questions on education. There are things mentioned we've never heard of; CE1, CM1, CE2. Can anyone help with this? The answers don't ACTUALLY require knowledge of these, but we'd both like to know what they mean; it sounds more like the descriptions of apartments etc!Thanks, jO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
