Seventeen.

According to Pamela Franklin's own account in her commentary to the DVD, they were supposed to start out at twelve and finish at eighteen (which was Ms. Franklin's actual age at the time).

In the scene in which Teddy Lloyd paints Jenny, he says something about "three years of Cramond," which would make them fifteen at the time.

When he paints Sandy, she explicitly (no pun intended) states that she is seventeen.

Clearly some time is intended to pass between that and the end of the film.
