okay so ive been accepted to a grammar school where i dont know anybody, not only this but i live in a council flat, and my dad is about to be made redundant so our financial circumstances are getting worse (im not saying this for sympathy, i just want to get some relevant advice). i dont believe in the stuck up stereotype and i know that there may be people that are not that rich, but there will most likely be people who are and im an easy target. i just wanted to know if there is anything i can do. i dont want my home life to put me off at school and i dont want to stick out more than i already do (i have a scottish accent and live in yorkshire). so any words of wisdom would be appreciated, because im sure there are loads of people that are in or have been in my situation. thanks

One important thing is to try and make friends and approach people as much as you can if you're new there. Though you'll probably get to know the other new people, most of the people who've been there since year 7 already have friends and won't bother making an effort with you. That's not to say they won't become friends with you if you try, just that they don't want to leave their comfort zones.
