Like most children in England, Christine started school when she was five.

She went to St John’s Junior School in Clapham, London, which was a public school; it was run
by the government. Later she went to a public high school nearby.
A lot of her friends left school when they were sixteen and found jobs, but Christine wanted to
go to university so she stayed on in the sixth form. She got good grades in her exams and was
offered a place at London University, where she studied English. She graduated in 1998, when she
was 21.
After leaving university she found a secretarial job with a travel company. However, she
decided that she really wanted to be a teacher, so she took a Bachelor of Education course part-
time while she was working. She learned a lot about teaching methodology and child psychology,
which she found very interesting.
