Very machiavellian if you Claire! :tongue:


I know:P The first time I dyed my hair, i went a bit far with it and school made me change it back with their stupid need to get us conform with their ugly uniformity rules:P
It was in music class. My friend and I were talking at class and I was saying her something "Probably...." Then the teacher come to us and interrupted us and told me to stand up and sing. The punishment was to sing the song "It's Probably Me" because Sting was the favourite singer of my teacher.

My school uniform made us look like bumblebees and we used to colour our trainers in with sharpies as we had to have completely black shoes. Many people went as far as burning their uniforms when year 11 was over:P
This wasn't me, but in Year 13 a classmate of mine got in trouble for having tights that showed too much skin through them -- despite the girl sitting next to her having even more revealing tights. When the first girl complained, she was told "we're not talking about [name's] tights, we're talking about YOUR tights."

Kind of daft considering my sixth form didn't even have a dress code.

i never used to wear my blazer bc it was so unfashianble so i used to wear a cardigan and got in trouble ALL the time for it :lol:
I always got told off for selling stuff... and throwing stuff
I once got in trouble for 'lying' because my maths teacher didnt believe me when i said I'd done extra maths work in my own time. When I brought said work in the following day she accused me of having only completed it to get away with lying
Suspended three times.


1. Smoking - I don't smoke.
2. Drug dealing - I literally just spectated as someone sold someone else an oxo cube.
3. Not picking up someone else's muffin wrapper when asked.

Laughing. In History class with everyone on PCs doing an interactive tour of Auschwitz - it was nothing to do with that, but the teacher, for whatever reason, assumed the worst. Was generally bollo*ked for not taking such a serious thing seriously and then disallowed from sitting with the same person again.
in cooking this boy said my fries tasted like "flaccid fries" so i punched him in the neck and i got an hour detention wtf

I wrote an essay that was too long and the teacher didn't want to read it... :angry: #Moooose


Oh god I was once blamed by all the boys for climbing into the ceiling in the toilets (if that makes sense), the ceiling was made of white square cardboard's and I kept telling them it wasn't me but they wouldn't believe me luckily they didn't charge me for any of the costs.
Also another time in secondary school I was handing out text books and there was one girl who didn't get one as we were one short, I can't remember exactly what she said but she kicked me in my leg and started throwing her arms at me and than started CRYING. I had never been so annoyed in my life, I was than sent to the vice headteachers office and asked to write a letter of what happened, of course the vice headteacher took the girls side and I was suspended for 2 days. When I went to school people called me a sissy :/

I mean, it's a bit odd giving boring a rubber from a fellow student - it doesn't really seem like the time or place... :wink: #Moooose
