The Current Year 10 Thread Mark I (2015-2016)

Yeah, I'm not gonna sleep well tonight. I am absolutley dreadig tomorrow. My plan is to wake up early before mom leaves for work then get ready and leave around 10:15 for school at 11:00. Ugh, why couldn't I start on Wednesday, first day just had to be a monday.

Does your school always start at 11:00?

I just came back home from school and I guess it was good day to start off this school year... The first lesson I had was Maths and we did linear equations(easy) and then in English the teacher talked about the new English GCSE. But after school I had a Triple Science intervention which is compulsory.. it is every Monday after school but I don't mind since I like Science. So yeah, I had quite a good day and I'm looking forward to this school year

Sorry for the long post

Yes! Today was better than I expected it to be, my timetable isn't too bad, there are a lot of doubles. A lot of new teachers are in the school, I still got my same french teacher and geography teacher. However my new shoes are a pain to wear and now my feet are aching

I agree with everyones first days. Don't expect the school not to talk about their expectations. My form tutor went on and on from 11:00-12:40. We had double english after which was nice, my new teacher told us a bit about the GCSE's and the fact that some of it is now shakesperean it is going to be harder. She told us we are gonna have to learn it front and back, honestly I can't wait. She even called us the guinea pig year, which is exactly what I said on another forum about our year being an experiment for the government. Anyways, I got 3 bad teachers that I was begging not to get:

My IT teacher who is crazy and very shouty, she was once dancing on the pole outside the IT block while waiting for stusents to come. Maths teacher that I had in year 8 couldn't control the class and now I have her... again. Religious Studies teacher moaned at me in the corridor for having a lanyard around my neck, she said "only teachers wear that", so arrogant and rude... rant over.

I'm going to try my best to enjoy this year, I only got a year and a half left so I'm gonna make the most of it

I was back on Thursday. I've already got two H/W set for this week. By they way, I'm finding English very stressful as all of my lessons are double lessons and I hate the seating plan Ms made. I'm currently dreading about tomorrow morning as I have double computing. I really hate that class:
1. They still fail to separate the IT students from the Computing class and instead we have ONE teacher for both IT and Computing students.
2. As I've got more or less the same class as last year, I have students who aren't very supportive and are a pain to work with. The minority however are great to work with.

Great! I'm looking forward to this year too! Seems like a more productive year to me.

Ha, you want to see long? Look at my post.

Good to hear that you're having a great day. I had an alright day but I'm feeling stressed about English. I'm glad to hear that intervention at your school is compulsory as in my school it isn't.

Your post wasn't long, @MrMackyTv's post was longer than yours. :P

Yeah, I'm trying to do my best this year.. hopefully it's a successful year for me.
And also, I think interventions would help me massively in Triple Science since it is really hard

I just everyone is getting stressed again as we return to school. - I'm currently having a huge headache over English, my English teacher has very big expectation on my class and I guess it the fact I'm in Set 1. Honestly, I wish I had my English teacher from last year who has sadly left my school. She wouldn't be giving me too much stress but will still equally teach me well.

Sorry to hear that your feet are aching and that you've got horrible teachers. I don't understand why your IT teacher says students are banned from wearing lanyard as my school doesn't have an issue with that.

Honestly, I literally have a light headache just because I'm back at school.

My feet are fine now, this always happens at the start of the year, I just need to get accustomed to it. Actually it was my RS teacher that said only teachers are allowed to wear lanyards. I don't have her till next week Monday so I'm happy... for now. I wore lanyards to school since year 8 because I kept losing my usb, but that's why I've stopped because she was moaning at me and I honestly find her very irritating and very naggy.

Glad you had a good day We seem to have loads of doubles as well but we get at least 2 doubles per option subject and we have 4 options so that's expected. I've never had double English but I guess your classes must be longer than ours if you can fit that in your timetable. My feet were killing me all weekend and that was just after 2 days of new shoes
We have a teacher who can't control our class (biology) but the thing is we're not even a bad class so I dread to think what it's like in a bad class. We've done 2 hours with her and so far we've changed topic 3 times and wrote 3 sentences. We're still not on the topic we're meant to be on right now so basically we have 3 years worth of work to learn in 2 years (we had supply most of last year) with a teacher who can't teach us It probably doesn't help that she doesn't speak all that much English and no one can understand what she does say with her strong accent.
We're all supposed to have lanyards around out neck with ID cards so we can get in the building but only the teachers actually do it, everyone else just keeps it in their bags but that doesn't really help you with your RS teacher sorry.

Oops that post was longer than I thought it was, sorry.

Ok. Typical of your RS teacher to make silly remarks about students wearing a lanyard, I don't see anything wrong with that. I know what you mean about losing your stuff ... especially USB
