Yeah, I am pretty sure CS Lewis never actually pins down the kids’ ages, because I know I always pictured Peter as, you know, “a couple years older than me” from age, maybe 7 to age 15.

Arthur Ransome is also pretty vague in the Swallows and Amazons stories.

But in a story about school you don’t have that luxury. Age defines place at the school. 13 seems reasonable to me.
