Contact Gordon Watt at Glasgow Caledonian University as he has dedicated his research to school children. I do not have his email but you could enquire at <podadmissions@gcal.ac.uk > Or maybe someone on this list can give you his contact details. Peter Thompson is another good contact and has written a book on podopaediatrics (published by Churchill Livingstone)
