This path is practice in how the records and the sums work. It is not tax advice. Any rate or allowance in a question is an example for that question, so check GOV.UK for the current figures.

How this works

Each room answers one problem. A task is a few lines of reading, then questions you answer in the books: post to an account, type a figure, sort, match or write a journal. Every answer is marked at once, with the rule behind it. There are no videos.
