RATTON’S
MOTTO
“Achieving
Together”
The
designer
of Solar
Navigator attended Ratton school between 1968 to
1972, after which he enrolled at the Eastbourne College
of Further Education to study engineering. His favorite subjects were physics and
technical drawing. He did not enjoy maths or
history - how times change. Nelson says: "learn
as much as you can while at school. Teachers are
your friends. If you want help - ask for it.
It may seem like a waste of time
right now, but you do need this basic grounding to prepare
you for a fuller life."

generally excellent site containing a huge amount of
interactive revision material. In addition there are
tests and links to other good websites. Beware that the
GCSE specification content is not fully covered in all
subjects, although this is not made clear.

high quality site provided by the Guardian newspaper.
The revision section has good advice on coping with

specific revision information. However, again the
specification content coverage is not complete.
