Midnight spanning twins
If you have twins (or other multiples) born either side of midnight, are their births registered as different days?
If so, if that midnight is August 31st would they have to start school in different years, or are concessions made?

As for schooling, I suppose this would be up the school's discretion. After all, with the way term times start one twin would end up starting school 3 months before the other. This wouldn't apply to a January birth, but you are right to worry as these are summer cut-off points.
