    One of the students at my school murdered some girl while they were both on a drug binge. Oh, another student raped a woman who was in her 80s, he claimed that it wasn't his fault because he was on drugs and drunk. Several of his friends used this as a defence too.
    God, that's awful.

    And... monkey island?!

    We have the regular fights between the Comp and the boys Grammar across the road, haven't had a big one for a few years though - Last time I remember they had one the police were called and knives were taken. A few years before I got there one boy from the Grammar was beaten with a baseball bat and brain damaged :eek:

    No real scandals in the school, which for an all girls is pretty damn good I think. The school conspiracy theory is that our old head teacher stole the money for our sports hall and now her dead body is under the foundations, but given that she's now the Head of another school in the area that's a bit... Improbable.

    - Teachers stealing school money/property
    - Married teacher having an affair with a sixth-former
    - Caretaker (!) having an affair with a sixth former
    - Various relationships and hysterical breakups and untowards proposals going on between members of staff
    - 13-year-old girl getting pregnant and keeping the baby
    - Pupils expelled for turning up to exams hideously drunk, and throwing up all over the exam papers
    - Students spied having very noisy sex in a car, ON SCHOOL PROPERTY, by a Year 7, who promptly called the Head of Sixth over to have a look. They were in trouble.
    - A now infamous houseparty that was completely trashed, riot police turning up with dogs, thousand of pounds worth of damage... the hostess of the party goes to my school.. and basically our whole school turned up to this shindig. It was all over the national news. The school's name was all over the papers, the teachers were appalled.

    There's lots more, too.

    All this from the most academic school in the area!

    - A girl being resussitated (Sorry a can't spell) when she took coke in the toilets.
    - teacher's pulling all the time and being walked in on all the time..
    - A freaky paedophile teacher who didn't last two seconds (thank god)
    - Gas leak
    - Chavs setting off fire alarm on parent's evening
    - 6th former going out with the guitar teacher..

    there's probably more, I'll add to this as I think of them.

    girls i knew went to school drunk one friday and managed to sit in the maths class slurring their words but never got caught!!!

    In my school that's not a scandal, that's Friday afternoon.


    Most exciting thing that ever happened was that some girl in the year below me filmed herself having sex. At the time she was 15 I think so it was a big deal. So yeah, it was on her boyfriend's phone, and then another girl who hated the porn star and wanted to get on her boyfriend found it and bluetoothed it to everyone. There was a point where everyone in the whole school seemed to have it on their phones and everyone constantly talked about it, and the vast majority of the teachers had seen it... she left not long after, unsurprisingly.


    I go to an all-girls school in a dodgy area so the amount of teenage pregnancies is infinite also, but mostly the sort of people who get pregnant drop out at the end of year 11 so haven't known anyone in a while. A few days before I left I accidentally walked into a year 10's baby shower when trying to find a maths mark scheme. True story.

    Umm at my old school, pupils having sex in school toilets, drug dealing, teachers sleeping together, old deputy-head(who was a nun) went off and married an old head teacher of the school, lots of fights, etc. Not too much at my new school, putting ketchup in all the school toilets, hanging up a sign saying 'Playboy mansion' outside the school,etc

    Several fires, including one which destroyed a toilet, and one in which a radiator burst into flames.
    Windows getting smashed, constantly.
    One girl showed up at school completely drunk once, she had real issues.
    People going up to teachers and threatening to beat them up/kill them. An English teacher got punched once.
    And, of course, the standard pregnancies, including one girl who was only thirteen at the time.
    I'm so happy I'm not at high school anymore.

    A PE teacher used to watch the boys have showers, he got fired just before I went up to senior school.

    Never mind Friday afternoon, it's any where there's a bit of time at ours. It'd be rude not to go to the pub for a while for the odd lunchtime here and there.

    That's not Torquay Girls' Grammar, is it....?



    My secondary school was extraordinarily strict, I once nearly got suspended for skipping an afterschool club :eek:
    Erm, when I was in Year 9 some people brought in vodka and had half a sip of it in the toilets and I was form captain, I was asked if I knew anything about it and I said no; someone would up saying I did and I lost my form captaincy...
    A few pregnancies, a science teacher that had a bit of a breakdown, that's mostly it. And then everyone leaves and becomes a rebel.

    Was that the party which was announced on BBC Radio 1 or something?
