CreationOn first appearances 12-year-old Caitlin McNabb is very much like any other schoolgirl. Sitting on the sofa with her parents, Wes and Jane, at their home in Greenwich, south-east London, Caitlin talks excitedly about her friends, her favourite subjects and the new school year. But there is one difference between Caitlin and the other pupils at Plumstead Manor: she is reluctant to believe everything she is told. “I was in a geography lesson and there was a lot of talk about ‘this is how old the Earth is’,” she says. “So I just said, ‘there are different sides to it if you look at it in a religious way’. And the teacher said, ‘Oh yes, yes that’s true’.”
