Schools to educate 'from crib to college'

Two independent schools in Scotland are set to offer continuous education from crib to college. The schools, Albyn School for Girls in Aberdeen and Lathallan in the north-east of the country, hope to be open for babies from later this year. Headmaster Dr John Halliday of Albyn School for Girls said the decision to open a baby and toddler unit in November and extend provision was in response to demand from parents who wanted continuity for their children.
