Youngest, ish. My birthday was always in the last week of the school year. I always did really well as did my sister who was also July. Sat my GCSEs at 15, A levels at 17, had a BSc at 20 and an MSc at 21!

Younger end, I had a friend who was born in September and I just couldn’t understand how she could be older than me when her birthday was after mine! Of course she was born the year before but at 4 I didn’t get it!

I had started at school and we moved house in the November. Where we moved to had three intakes a year depending on when you were born so September- December started in September. January-April started after Christmas and May-August started after Easter. So I didn’t start again until after Easter. My Mum said as I had already been to school she could have got me in when we first moved but I wasn’t ready.
