Getting out of school....

Hey- sorry about your situation. Does the private school offer any bursary schemes? Maybe they can look into your families financial situation and take that into account. They may even be able to offer you a scholarship if you meet the requirements. Contact the school qnd see if something like this can be arranged; if you are a high achiever then they can take that into account. Why are you unhappy with the current school though? Is it the teaching? Students? Is it something that can be changed that can maybe better your school experience. Try looking for alternatives- private school may not be the only option.

Hey! Anything is better than being home schooled. Deep that I didn't have any social interactions till I was 11

What do you mean, home schooled?

Scholarships are usually offered to those gifted students; high grades, sports etc. See if they offer that and if you meet the criteria. If you cannot financially afford it, and the ONLY way to get in, is by paying the full amount then im not sure if theres any other way. Maybe try making an appeal to the local council; write them a letter regarding your situation and maybe they can help? Its a long shot but worth the try. Also could an alternative be getting a private tutor at home; that way you ontop of everything and getting those grades that you deserve. Only 2 more years of school and sixth form and then finally university-maybe see it like that? Im sorry I can't be more helpful.

I learnt everything in primary and (basic) GCSE's at home with a private teacher till i was 11...
I went to a private school for 2 years and learnt how dead it was
Now I go to some f***ed school in Ilford but I'm glad I do because it is 100 times better than what I grew up with

Maybe it's just me. IF you really don't like the environment and you can't just change school then enjoy private.

Yeah, I don't know some people hate private school and some people loved it it might not have been your cup of tea?

I currently go to a state school, is that where you are now?

Is there a specific level my parents can ring up about and see if I have achieved?

Trust me, you're helping a lot

I couldn't agree more. I guess it just wasn't for me, dk why but when you get popular in private schools people become toxic to you, and you become toxic yourself till you realise that you are becoming a b****

Yeah, and although its awfully funded I prefer the environment there, i feel like secondary is 75% about what you do rather than your teachers do to help you. Later down you have to depend more on teachers though.

Find out what your current grades are; im not sure if you need a specific level. Find out if the private school does offer any scholorships. Maybe findout if your Principal can give you a referral to that school? Like call the private school and refer you to them. Maybe write a letter about.how much of a great student you are and that this current school enviroment is restricting your academic abilities.

Is there a lot of drama in private schools? And did you go to a mixed? Btw are you male or female, if you don't mind me asking?

I'm not the above person but....
There is drama wherever you go to. Doesn't matter what school its at. Yes there is drama at private schools, I went to a mixed one. Also if you're problem is the students, then the students aren't exactly any better at private school either.

Thankyou for your reply.

I completely agree, but it's hard to explain.

I'm male and there isn't drama if you are a lowkey person. If you are a natural extrovert and are bound to make a lot of friends, some people turn on you and stuff becomes toxic between girls and boys. Fr, some stuff that happened was absolute bs. There was so much jealousy and drama at one point, it was actually mad. Some people (never happened to me) had fights over grades and stuff, people calling each other dumb. it wasn't ever physical but sometimes you get some stuck up person who's father is something big acting like they own the school. Most people are nice in private schools, but it's just so competitive which I like but it becomes toxic, which i don't like

I'm not trying to discourage you, but most private schools are like that.. ik some that aren't though

Are there other state schools in the area?
because I feel like the whole private school situation may not be feasible for you, unless they have scholarships or similair

Yes there are other state schools in the area but my mum isn't too keen on them because theyre dodgey
