I got detentions a few times but never got suspended.

I notice schools suspends kids for silly things these days, that wouldn't have warranted a suspension when i was at school...

Detentions a fair few times, often for idiotic and trivial reasons

The principal said it didn't matter because he sustained an injury and I didn't.
Nope lol.

Like what? :biggrin:
2 days for having a fight in school

Had detentions on multiple occasions
Loads of detentions.

No suspensions (though those were often due to a social worker mediating between me and whoever I was fighting and agreeing to not fight again or to take Isolation or in school all day detention)


One exclusion from 2nd school and I had to take my gcses in an alternative detention school for troubled kids. It wasn't living in.



Dropped out seeeeeeveral times, I repeated a couple years, finally went to uni thru clearing at 19 about to be 20. So yea.

Basically just this kid that everyone was supposedly scared of, tried to torment me. Then I had to beat him up...

My other fight in primary was with someone 2 years older than me, I fought him for taking my football, so I beat him up with a bat.
No.
