My son has a little friend in his street who attends a private school three miles away. The little boy is six years old. It takes about 20 minutes to get to the school.
He has to be there by 8.15 and his school day finishes at 3.45. After that he does after school club until 6pm. After that the little boy has to do one to two hours of homework a night. His parents who are keen to get him ahead academically also make him do Kip MaGrath tutoring on a Saturday morning. They are a lovely family and their boy is really well mannered.
I just wonder where private school parents or their children get the stamina to cope.
