you said "i was in isolation etc etc and it was lit." the "it" can only refer to isolation...you should've said, "i bunked off before and it was lit." :hmmm:

anywayss wuhhh bunking was pretty boring actually, nd ISOLATION was lit. bunking is lame cos during the day, everyone else is at school and work, and then police are on you cos you're a minor not at school. It was better to go home late after school, than to bunk off during school ygm.

No bunking was fun cause we explored the school and didn’t get caught for a long time. Very fun until I got caught and got whooped bad lol. Idk what school you went to but isolation was just doing maths work in a room all day not socialising at all.
Detentions (in breaks and after school; had the school record for after school), put into isolation (in school), external isolation, suspended and excluded (never was excluded). I was also put on report for many months at a time (have to get a teacher to sign it after each lesson).

Didn't work because they were just normal to me. Not something I feared might happen, but something that was happening anyway no matter my prospective best efforts. For after-school detentions, we had them every Weds and I had 30 weeks of them to go at one point -- which didn't really help deter me getting another one, cos 30 or 31 weeks didn't make a difference.

lol thats not bunking if you're still on school grounds wtf. nah isolation is all dependent on who is watching you, and sometimes the teacher kinda let us crack on with it or didnt notice what we were doing. Pupil referral units are even more lit. It's all a shame though to be a bad kid, dont get me wrong. We just liked to goof off even while detained.

Go to the shops and nick some CDs. That's what bunking relates to, not so much being 30 mins late to a lesson cos you had a big shite in the toilets.

every yr tbf when I was in yr TWO I was like 7 and left thru the gate when we were outside playing :rofl2: had police looking for me, I was at a mate's playing video games :rofl: but it happened more as I got older, till they excluded me. I'v been excluded in multiple years.
I was put in the school basement and whipped :/ Safe to say, it wasn't really a punishment for me...

In the news today a family is planning to take action against their school for punishing their child with isolation! The child has spent a third of the last school year isolated from fellow pupils. What do you think of this, do you think isolation is a fair form of punishmnet? How were you punished at school?

ah yh! did my GCSE's, had to, because I got sent to an exclusion unit with like...teen mums, gang members tryna reform, or people who needed extra tutoring ygm? And there you HAVE to complete your gcse's cos they're publicly funded to literally catch us up with the exams. Or they kick you out and you're done for completely, no other chances. We tested there as well, all core subjects. I did go to uni, swear down, applied thru clearing when I was 19. A year after everyone else, but I did it.

How well did you do? Wait why are teen mums with you? They didn’t really do a crime:/ ah well that’s good:smile:
So we had the following system:

S1 - Warning
S2 - Another warning
S3 - Hour detention after school
S4 - Isolation for less than one day
S5 - Suspension
S6 - Expulsion


Teachers were usually reluctant to give more than an S2 and it was never "2 warnings then detention" they usually left it a while. Tbh when I was in year 11 detentions were so lit because the teacher was hilarious and always just talked to us and let us chill, he was really calm so maybe it wasn't the same for other schools lol

its not just for criminals lol, but people who need extra tutoring lol you are either sent there or you can apply yourself, but the thing is most people wont. I mean I was decent but it was like 15 yrs ago, so I dont remember exactly. Teachers supported me always saying I was bright, brighter than other kids who are in and out of my circumstances, etc. dunno. Never failed ANYthing though, except chem at the a-level. They key was to revise but I was dealing with homelessness and **** and couldnt ever do it.

is this an interrogation. nah, there are loads of minors sleeping rough!? jeeeeeeez, miss bunking off is roaming the school corridors :rolleyes: :wink:
Yeah I was put into isolation, never did like my teachers anyway.
Isolation unit. Just needed to be gobby to the teachers so I could go there. Worked well to get away from the bullies for a while. Even then I still had the 'golden child' 'smiley' and 'clever clogs' titles I could never be rid of.
