• An article examining a French school's radical approach to teaching children falling behind in maths, French and English suggested that Paul Robert, the headteacher, had been forced out of his previous job at a school "after a backlash" against his teaching methods. This is not the case. Mr Robert was forced to give up a project at his previous school, which he left a year later for reasons unconnected with the project (Revolt stirs against 'elitist' system that is showing its age, 26 March, page 29).

• A graphic, showing how £20bn worth of NHS savings will be shared out, which accompanies a public spending cuts feature in today's Society section, incorrectly gives the figures in millions when they should be billions (NHS, 30 March, page 2).

• An Open door column incorrectly stated that an estimate of the fortune of Hosni Mubarak used in a Guardian news story – between $40bn and $70bn – was given by a Princeton academic. Those figures came from the author of a biography of the former Egyptian president (Open door, 21 March, page 35).

• A report on front-page news stories in Spain as part of the New Europe series mistakenly referred to police arresting Eta members during a previous ceasefire in 2008. That should have been 2006 (Libya bumps Zapatero's misery off front pages, 29 March, page 23).
