Welcome to the summer prep and senior issue of Independent School Parent.
From refurbishments and new builds to specialist centres aimed at achieving excellence in a range of subjects, independent schools offer truly singular learning experiences within unique settings. Cases in point: Bilton Grange?s forthcoming boarding house development, Bradford Grammar Prep?s new alfresco amphitheatre, the museum at Stonyhurst and Rossall School?s astronomy centre ? Laura Sutherland finds out more on page 18.
The summer holidays are almost upon us, meaning that it?s likely children will spend yet more time on their phones. On page 15, child counsellor and former broadcaster Kate Silverton shares tips from her new book on how you can ensure that screen time is as reasonable as can be. A DNA sequencing project has been engaging students at St Margaret?s School for Girls in Aberdeen: on page 22, Abby Miller, Head of Biology and Sustainability explains how it?s giving them real STEM career experience.
And don?t forget to enter our competition (page 65) for a chance to win afternoon tea for two!
Happy reading and enjoy the summer now that it?s finally arrived!
