Circus Windows Now with even more cameos!

I see Magus Tom is continuing Allison's long-running trend of unorthodox phone usage.

I guess Lottie's still peeved over the whole Wen-Tack road debacle.

Gotta say I don't understand this strip, I guess it because I don't know the british school system and the words make no sene to me.

Basically, at the end of the Wen-Tack storyline which takes place after the end of Bad Machinery, Mildred successfully got a road built between Tackleford and the neighbouring town of Wendlefield. This screwed up the catchment areas of Tackleford. Sixth Form is basically the last two years of schooling before University, which can either be as part of a regular secondary school or at dedicated colleges - so if your school doesn't have a sixth form, you would either go to one that does or to a college. Griswalds (the school all of the mystery teens went to) had its own Sixth Form as part of the school, but due to the aforementioned shift of catchment areas (and Britain being a hellscape of Tory-led austerity, both in-universe and IRL), it got closed due to no longer being the only accessible 6th form in the area, so the mystery teens presumably all wound up going their separate ways for 6th form.

The problem is that Allison decided Wen-Tack, while apparently canon, wasn't really good enough to merit being posted online (which seems a bit harsh), so it can't be found easily. Some bold goon posted Wen-Tack last thread, but Allison posted a link to a pdf if anyone wants to see it again.

Is there some cheat sheet around that lets the average reader make their way through the Bobbinsverse in order instead of, well, the mess we currently have?
There is, in fact!

It leaves out Hard Yards, Wen-Tack, Wicked Things and Circus Windows, but they all take place after Bad Machinery case 10 in that order.

It also omits By Night & Steeple, but they're both far enough removed from Tackleford that it doesn't really matter. They happen in the same universe, that's basically all you need.
