Dont worry about your spelling, its a forum not a flippin english test.
Are the teachers getting withdrawal symptoms due to the 6 weeks break ?
For crying out loud ! :D

Rust is common on the panels you mention, its a question of deciding what to do with it, which depends upon lots of things:
Your ability to fix it
How long you want to keep the van
Your funds
etc.

Maybe one of the specialist bodywork guys on here could help with some ideas if you are near enough to visit, or maybe you could post some pictures ?
Could be worth brushing some rust killer on it whilst you decide, but as most rust works from the inside to the outside, that may only have limited effect.
Hope that helps.
Only wear the hat if it fits
