I didn't count. I just eventually got expelled lol. Got equivalent gcse qualifications (qual'ns) at a separate school for troubled pupils and went on to take equivalent ucas qual'ns for uni, in which I got thru clearing lol.

Many times :tongue:

By far the worst was that I once ran away from the teacher and he chased we around the school for a good 10 minutes. I even jumped the school gate and he still followed me but he never got me :biggrin:

Next day I found out I got a months worth of detention :frown:

I never got one. I blagged my way out of one I might have had, but otherwise never came near.

I've had three "C3s", one of which was effectively suspended on the condition that I attended after school RE instead.

I've had numerous negative phone calls home. I feel that my High School's way of dealing with my behaviour was bad, and they could've dealt with things better.

Nice thread bumping :biggrin:

As for detentions, I can't remember whether I posted on here before, but yes, I did get detentions at school (plus a 2 days suspension in year 8) and no, I didn't count how many I had. Because why would one spend their school years worrying about how many detentions they had each year? :tongue:

The main thing was that I did well in my GCSEs and my A Levels were good enough to get into university via clearing :smile:

Detention is just a normal part of school life. I received 24, mostly for irrelevant things like talking in class or not doing homework. I received a Saturday detention a few times, too, for cutting classes.

Wow that was some going funny though

probably 5

Twice, both for missing homework. After the second detention, I went on an incredible streak of 15 straight months without missing a single piece of homework.

Too many detentions to mention.

I got suspended once in yr 10 for kicking a bully in the balls (and punching him). The bully would constantly spread rumours about me, call me names, and pull my hair.

I had one detention for forgetting my calculator for a maths test. Although it didn't really count, my teacher signed my planner when I walked into the room then let me go
