How does education work in the UK? Do teachers and tutors take different approaches compared to those in other countries? How does this affect you? Do you like these approaches and attitudes? Or are there aspects of teacher/student interactions you find problematic? What are the best ways of dealing with these problems?

You will have to deal with national, local and educational departments of government in the UK. What's the best way of approaching government officials? Is it easy? Or does it drive you mad? Tell each other your experiences. Ask for help and advice.

Ask each other advice on money matters. What are the best prices around at the moment online or in your area? What are the most reliable retailers? Have you had any great or bad experiences with purchases? What are your rights if you have spent money and not been satisfied with the product or service?
