Hilarious they called it secret 😂 I did it in the 80s.
I was momentarily confused by the headline, but I am a bit believer in TY. It was a great benefit for my DC.

A great in depth article mind . My kids loved TY. I think the students who went straight onto LC and Uni really missed out. An extra year of maturity is no harm at all . Particularly for boys imo.

BIG believer obviously 🫣
I completely agree @Abhannmor, it's a great year for them to learn so much and mature.

Read the article earlier and really enjoyed it. I loved TY, my school did a great job of it in fairness.

I'm north of the border now, quite sad my DDs won't get the same opportunity.
