Sleepless night, excitement, tears and smiles – and that’s just the mums on the first day of school.
There goes the bell: Teacher on duty Catherine Fell rings the bell for the start of the new school year at Caldewlea School in 2001
Whether it’s a tiny starter, a youngster going into a new class, a suddenly-small 11-year-old venturing into a big secondary school, or a teenager embarking on sixth-form life, that big day at the start of September is a watershed in a young life.
And for teachers and dinner ladies, the restful days of the summer break are just a memory as classroooms fill up with a new set of pupils.
