Spitting chewing gum whilst on the stairs and walking behind the Head of Science was prohibited :hand:

Not being able to leave the room during exams (when it comes to pretty much anything).

Say it in that way: I got the permission to leave the room to interrupt my exams for a walk to the lavatory. As long as I was the only one.

Yes - it’s so annoying cos the school decided to save ‘66000 pounds by dropping the temperature inside from 19 to 17 degrees. It’s pretty cold by late November’

Taking languages for gcse.

Not for HW but yes otherwise (I should have been given a word processor instead of a scribe).

I had to for homework until about the end of Y10 when they gave me laptop permissions. I really really struggle with handwriting due to a disability so this was really hard.

Yes (queues are around 20 minutes 😭)

Kinda the opposite but allowed to bring phone into school but can’t use it at any time.

Toilets locked? That could have repercussions but ok.
