Educating twinsMonday 30 July 2001
One of the most pressing choices facing parents of either twins or other multiples is whether the siblings should be educated together or apart.

When nine sets of twins arrived at Head Pat Preedy's school in 1992 the school had no policy as to how to place them. Should they be separated or not?
Ten years on and with a PhD in the management of multiples, Pat has just helped launch the world's first website aimed at helping parents and teachers assess the educational needs of twins and other multiples.
She joins Sheila along with mother of triplets Barbara Lantin.
