02 03 FOREWORDS I’m delighted to commend this year’s Academic Journal to you all. The Journal, now in its fourth year, has become an annual piece of work, which showcases some of the best of our Sixth Formers’ research, and gives them the chance to have their work published to a wide audience. I hope that you both enjoy, and are informed by, the excellent articles in this publication and I wish you happy reading. My thanks to all students who have contributed to such a high standard – they are a credit to both themselves and the school. Phillip Wayne – Headmaster It is once again a privilege to oversee the process of this Journal and this foreword is a fitting platform to express our sincere thanks to those that have made it all happen. Firstly, to Charlie and Krish on our Senior Prefect team, who have jointly masterminded the project from its launch this year to its publication. This has meant hours of thought and practical input, for which we offer our sincere thanks. To Mrs Bignell and MrsWallace, who as ever have provided expert guidance and the means to put the Journal together in this form. To all the other Subject Ambassadors and members of staff who have helped to read and select the articles that we see in the finished Journal, please also accept our thanks and gratitude. And of course, our grateful thanks go to all the students whose articles have been selected for this Journal and also to all those students whose articles we couldn’t quite find room for this time around. You all deserve many congratulations on your efforts here. You truly are the very best of RGS and you never cease to amaze us with the breadth of your knowledge, insight and interests. Enjoy reading these articles as they showcase some of our very best talent. Mr Noyes – Director of Sixth Form
