SISTERS TALKING

Abstract

After a wartime spent in Canada as evacuees, we returned to London to find, in common with most children of our age who had been living in North America during the war, that we were academically behind our contemporaries, even though DB had been considered rather bright in North American schools. There was some difficulty in finding a school for her, at 13 years old, but our parents eventually found one which would take her. It was some distance from home, but it was a grammar school. She was put into the bottom stream, from which she progressed to the top stream by the end of the year.
