School
 

I'm curious. Were you happy there, or not? Discuss...................

Re: School
 

Was cool - prefered uni though - school just got in the way of exploring and having fun.

Re: School
 

Not really, wasnt entertained enough, too many idiots that were disruptive in the same classes. When i think back now my conclusion is that most of the teachers were absolutely hopeless.

I learnt far more in the few years after i left school than all the time i was at school

It wun tyme i coodent spel teecher now i am wun !

Re: School
 

Not really. I was bulled 95% of the time with varying degrees of nastiness. Sometimes it was bad, sometimes it was not so bad. I basically tried to keep out everyone's way and do the best I could.

The last two years, 6th form A-levels, were probably the best as the bullying more or less dried up and I had the most friends. Also having a bit more freedom was nice too.

There's no way i'd way to go to school in this day and age. Not with how kids are these days. I'd rather be gormless.

........... no i cant say it :D j/k

Re: School
 

Schoool was good once A levels kicked in as most of the idiots had gone by then.
I remember having a bit of a rough time in secondary school as I was always the one who would do their work so others would like to pick on me.
My A level years were probably the best. I met some briliant people, my best friend too, and we still meet up all the time.

Uni is fun. Its another experience, but once you near the end of your course, youl be hating it as you try to get everything done.

Primary school was fun. The best 12 years of my life :)

Seriously, school was ok, but Uni was better.

Re: School
 

I hated it and couldnt wait to leave.
Wish i could go back tho knowing what i know now, try harder and enjoy it 2nd time round!! Oh and sail thru the exams cos half the marks would be based on coursework and get easy peasy results instead of having to sit one off exams and get a mind blank :(

Re: School
 

good point - I did O' Levels, at school, which were based mostly on exams, except French Oral :erm:

ond/hnd which I did later, at polytechnic, were much more "practical" based, and turned out to be more useful, in the long run ;)

- the 'sweet spot' is somewhere in the middle :)

Re: School
 

hated it all the way through, and couldn't find enough things wrong with me to be ill more often :) I went to a public school first of all, got beaten up all the time, then went to a private school, which was alright apart from being picked on, then went to an all-boys grammar school which used to be one of the top schools in the country, but started to slip and slide - I hear that it sucks more than ever nowadays... considering how much I hated it, I'm surprised I ended up with any A levels at all!

I've found uni to be far better, mainly as I'm finally studying something I'm interested in. I find that if I'm not interested, I just won't try at all... :D

Re: School
 

I can't remember too much cos when I was 12yrs. I had to go down and work with the Pit Ponys in the mines.:D

Re: School
 

There is legislation in place now to prevent this. The RSPCA would never allow poor innocent equines to be compromised in this fashion.
