Founder Siobhan Freegard said: 'Back to school is a sign of the times, becoming more hi-tech each year.
創(chuàng)辦人西沃恩•弗里加德說：“返校日能反映時代的特征，返校日的科技含量一年比一年高。”
'From uniforms to devices in lessons to after-school routines, parents, pupils and schools are using the best of the modern world to make learning fun and enjoyable.
“從校服到學(xué)習(xí)工具再到課后活動，家長、學(xué)生還有學(xué)校都在運用現(xiàn)代最好的工具讓學(xué)習(xí)變得有趣、快樂。”

68%的家長都說自己曾經(jīng)急著想開學(xué)去見分開六周的朋友們，然而現(xiàn)在只有23%的孩子這樣。
This is because modern kids check-in daily with friends through the holidays on social media, so already know what their schoolmates have been up to.
這是因為孩子們在假期每天都可以在社交媒體上和朋友聊天，所以他們早就知道那些朋友每天都干什么了。
Uniforms are another big area of change. One third of parents wore hand-me down togs, just 14 percent of modern children make do with second-hand uniforms.
