school gates, there’s still friendship<br />
issues, money for school trips,<br />
playground mishaps and large<br />
classes to contend with.<br />

part of University College, <strong>London</strong><br />

stage of their development from the<br />
ages of 4-<strong>18</strong>. Intellectual curiosity,<br />
breadth of study and independence<br />

tolerance of and arespect for the<br />
