Primary

Walked off the field in P.E and started shouting "racist b*tch" at my teacher

Secondary

Trashed my ICT classroom because my teacher was p*ssing me off.

My problem was mostly with teachers, not classmates

What about you?

I was a saint in primary...

Secondary:
- Got caught bunking lessons when a group of friends and I just hung around a wooded area drinking. We got suspended for a couple of days.
- Was dared into googling porn in the middle of an IT lesson... the teacher was stood right behind me ¬_¬
- Bunked off a couple of afternoons to go to house parties/ get pissed at the beach
- Our first-year form were known as the worst in the school because we had loads of fights... I remember one geography lesson one boy bit another one and he responded by throwing his chair at him. This escalated into everyone throwing their books and things out of the classroom window and locking another boy in the stationery cupboard when the teacher left the room.
- During a saturday morning detention a handful of us stole a bunch of stuff from the canteen.

I set the alarm off on the swimming bus as a dare and got detention.

Elementary School
Some kid was being a bitch to me, and he had this pen that looked like a pencil that he adored and thought was the coolest thing, so I broke it in half and threw it at him and the teacher flipped **** at me #thug

High School
Ditched last-period study hall with my friend and went out driving. Unfortunately our study hall monitor went on break and saw us at a convenience store pumping gas </3

A couple months ago they implemented a new bus policy that boys and girls can't sit together, and me and my friend who's a girl have sat together every day for 3 years. So when they made her change seats I moved to her new seat and refused to move because I'm a ****ing crusader for human rights and got kicked off my bus. Couldn't graduate because I had no transportation to school so now I'm an uneducated street urchin #thug

I set the fire alarm off, the school was evacuated, the fire brigade came. I owned up in the end and had to go and see the Fire Chief person with the head and apologise..I also got a weeks isolated suspension.

[Braden]

I remember thinking I was completely cool by hiding my French teacher's board pen, so she couldn't continue with the lesson. That, along with some other things lead her to cry...felt quite bad afterwards tbh.

Omg you bastard child

Primary is a bit of an odd one..everyones going to think Im a freak but here we go

Some girls tooth fell out at school. She was told to put it in her drawer until she went home. I stole the tooth and tried to pretend to my mum that it was mine, as I wanted money off the tooth fairy

Long story short, my mum obviously found out it wasnt mine, took me to the headteachers office the next day (where I stole a roll of stickers) and the head made me apologise to the girl and give her her tooth back

That night, armed with my roll of stickers I proceeded to tell my mum that I had been extremely good at school..too good for one sticker like usual, so the headteacher had given me the whole roll. Again, obviously she knew it was a lie, and I had to apologize to the headteacher the next day again.

I was grounded for a week at about 7 year old...

Secondry..I really dont know. Take your pick between refusing not to smoke in the yard. Drinking at school. Putting ketchup in my teachers shoes. Skiving. Removing the school firewall so that everyone could go on what they liked on the computers, and adding salt to a girls cake in cooking class.

Vicky...you were baaad!

Primary - pushing a friend into nettles

Secondary - I was always getting into trouble but never for anything really bad. Probably getting caught bunking lessons, oh and soaking a teacher with Lucozade sport but that was an accident I was threatening to squirt it at a friend and he ducked and it sprayed all over the teacher and she screamed and I got put in 'isolation' all day

[Marcus.]

noughting
i was a

[Ninastar]

I was a really good child but omg in 1st grade I did something that even to this day I can't explain why I did it.

I sharpened my pencil really sharp and I made my friend feel how sharp it was and then I pushed her thumb down on it. Obviously she cried and my teacher was like 'take her to the principles office!' And I was like sobbing and like 'don't you mean the nurse?' And the teacher was like 'no! To the principles office now!'

I took her to the nurse anyway.

[Loukas]

Primary
- Put pins on my teacher's chair in year 6 as a dare. We were then all kept behind until i confessed.
- Stole my friends crisps.
- Got sent out for 'disturbing' the class, i couldn't stop laughing.
Secondary
- Getting caught bunking and smoking in the 'smoking bush' in the back of the playground
- Making out with my ex boyfriend in an empty classroom at lunchtime when we were meant to be revising, then being caught by a year 7 student ahaha
- Calling my year 10 science teacher a bitch and telling her she looked like Sandy from Spongebob Squarepants. I got sent home for 2 days
- Talking to the guy next to me during a mock GCSE and getting sent out
- Getting sent out of my sociology lesson for passing notes about the teacher, he threatened to read them out to the class but he didn't because i said he was boring and had a monotone voice, which he so did.

I know, same here... my English class in 4th and 5th year especially, we were the 2nd set so we were meant to be really good and it was just full of these 'popular' kids who ****ed around for two years and treated our teacher like **** because they were all showing off, and she was a really good teacher, it was such a struggle to learn, she basically just ended up talking to the 7 of us who sat on our side of the classroom who actually wanted to learn more or less and ignored that lot and they all got Cs or they failed; I got an A because I wanted to learn and put the work in... it's really frustrating being at school. It's not much fun on the other side of the classroom either, after my year being an English assistant I wouldn't go back into education as a teacher...

...hmm, I'm a bit confused Zee..4th/5th year, for me that’s 8/9yr olds..are your years in Scotland different because grades don’t come until later and it sounds as though you’re talking about when you were older, at secondary or upper school..?...but anyway, it is quite interesting seeing things from both sides as it were, which you must have found as well...it’s kind of hard to get that balance with pupils who really just want to learn and not distract and those who do distract, especially when it’s regularly...you can’t just ignore the ones who find learning easy and think oh, you don’t need my help, you’ll do very well on your own because you motivate yourself..well not quite like that but you know what I mean...and you can’t exactly ‘reward’ bad behaviour but you also can’t and shouldn’t ignore these disruptions and the reasons for them...hmm, this is difficult because I actually think that your teacher was wrong in just concentrating on the ones who ‘wanted to learn’ and it’s sad those others failed but I don’t know exactly how it was and circumstances are different and have to be adapted so I’m not really judging her as such, I guess I’m just looking at your perspective of it, which was full of frustrations and understandably so...anyway, for me, I would feel that if pupils were constantly disruptive then I would be looking at why I wasn’t engaging their attention and if I was failing them..and maybe it would be nothing to do with me, there are different reasons for everything and you can’t always ‘fix’ them...but as frustrating as it is for others, I would actually be giving them a lot of attention but not in a way that I would give them the impression that I condoned their behaviour or that it was acceptable..but obviously that has to be balanced out with attention to the less disruptive pupils as well, so it’s hard...and I don’t work with older children so don’t encounter a wider range of problems ..but on the whole, as odd as it sounds, I would rather if a pupil found it hard to engage, that they were disruptive, rather than quiet as it would draw my attention to any potential learning difficulties much earlier so I kind of don’t always see it as a negative thing...but that’s from the ‘other side’ so I understand how frustrating it is for their fellow pupils and as I say, I don’t work with older children....

..it’s sad that your experience put you off though, I think maybe you would have made a good teacher and mentor...my friend’s son now teaches at the upper school he himself went to, which is quite unusual and we often have chats about it because it’s not only ‘from the other side’, it’s also the exact same people who taught him who are now his colleagues...I think even calling them by their first names is strange for him..but yeah, it is interesting reading your views because your experiences are from both sides....
