Susan Pallister catches up with two of her former students, Furqan Alamgir and Alex Yeung, founders of Connexin, one of the UK’s leading telecommunications firms. In a wide-ranging discussion, Furqan and Alex reflect on their time as students, the skills they think schools should be developing, as well as taking time to reflect, quite movingly at times, on their own education and their very fond memories of Hull Grammar School.
