Can we have ages instead of school years?

I have no idea how old a year 11 child is? And therefore no clue on of they should be allowed a phone in their room overnight.

Inspired by a thread, not necessarily a TAAT

You can either work it out on your fingers or just use Google 🤷‍♂️

If you have no experience of a child in, say Year 11, then simply ignore that post and just reply to topics that are relevant to you.

Or just figure it out. It's a pretty easy code to crack.

I agree with you OP.
It sometimes becomes apparent during the course of a thread what age the OP is talking about but it would be much easier if the actual age of the child was mentioned rather than just the school year.
