This week: If You Want To Run Away, You Can
Balgay is a girls' boarding school in Dundee - an exclusive school with only sixty pupils, where each member of the staff has only ten girls to educate. The girls wear school uniform when they go outside the school - and don't like wearing it. People stare. They stare more at these girls. Balgay is not a normal boarding school. For most of the girls it is a place where they learn to begin life - the kind of life other girls can take for granted. There are no fees and only one way to become a pupil. You must be sent to Balgay by a court, described as 'In need of care and protection.' It is an approved school. But at a time when the approved school system is under fire perhaps this school in Scotland can show us a different way.
