Haven't checked on Pigeon Post but here is a possible scenario.
They all went to Boarding Schools these were not Coeducational hence Susan and Titty would have gone somewhere different from John and Roger anyway.
Private boarding schools in the Uk are generally divided into Prep ( Preparatory ) schools for those under 12 and Public ( which are private!! ) Schools for those over 12.
By my calculations at the beginning of Pigeon Post ages were as follows:
John 14 Boys Public School
Susan 12 Girls Public School
Titty 10 Girls Prep School
Roger 9 Boys Prep School
Does this make sense?
