school opportunity thinking
I don’t think people realise how vital libraries are or what a colossal danger it would be if we were to lose any more.

school boys oxford
My experience came before most of you were born. My school was a state school in Leeds and the headmaster usually sent students to Leeds University but he didn't normally send them to Oxford or Cambridge.
