Frced to buy a laptop for school
My critical thinking teacher has told us that we MUST bring a laptop to lessons from now on. I told him that I do not have one, and he just got really angry with me and started shouting about how 'university lecturers are not going to give a damn about whether we have one or not'. He then proceeded to repeatedly pick on me the whole lesson because I didn't have a laptop.
I feel its quite unfair that he's forcing us to get a laptop, especially when the school just put a bunch of new computers up in the sixth form centre. What is the point of those?
Really, I just need to vent. I've been having a really bad day. I would complain about him, but he happens to be our vice principal and I guess above the head of sixth. To be honest, I'm on the verge of dropping CT as I was forced to do it this year (despite continuing my 4 A levels to A2).
The b3llend.

Complain.
It doesn't matter if he's the vice-principal- that's clearly well out of order. He can't force you to spend upwards of £200 on a course.
As for the University comparison? Short of perhaps Computer Science, there is never likely to be a situation where you'll have to take a laptop into a lecture. The man's full of it.

LOL I've never gone to a lecture in which I've had to have a laptop, infact I've not even seen someone typing away in a lecture before. At most I've seen people following on on mini notebook laptops. Unis have loads of computers and some even have a laptop borrowing system that you can use while in uni.
Alright, thanks people. I'll see how my next lesson with him goes. Def. not going to get a laptop because of him. I'm going to drop the subject once I send off my uni application anyway as I've made no reference to it anywhere on my application.
