Default what is or was your school like?

did you like your school? after i left school they closed the building down and it got pretty derelict and fire damaged they then knocked it down and a load of gypsies movedonto the site. it was a really sad day when the school was knocked down.

Hated school until University. Both schools before that are still thriving and have added on since. Sorry to hear about your school being knocked down PS.

My school was actually a really nice place that dates back to the 16th century, and has international students and some domestic boarders attending, so it was always a really nice mix of different people.

My school was a really nice old building - all beams and oak panelling....went back a couple of years ago for a reunion and it was great to see the place and appreciate it without thinking it was a prison....the boys school was across the road and was a newer building....and pretty grim...

It would take way longer then i'm willing to spend tonight to tell you about my school experience.

It is a good story though.

At the time when i went there, my school was rated one of the top 5 public schools in America. And my county was the richest county in the country.

That was during the 90's though. LONG time ago. My school is not just a story, it's a series of stories... lol

..my school was ok, it was very Catholic..(and strict)...and it was frowned upon to talk to kids from the less Catholic scool, which wasn't far away..I didn't love my schooldays but I didn't hate them either...I had a nice group of friends....

The school itself was alright. The teachers were generally a bit unenthusiastic. The students though on the whole were just nasty. Not disruptive in classes or anything like that, but were just generally mean-spirited people. Smart, pretty rich kids. -.-

My school wasn't that bad I guess.. I just felt very unmotivated throughout my whole school experience and I sort of gave up in Year 11 and ended up not doing my best in my GCSEs.

I loved primary school though

interesting fact - i started school in the millennium year and was in each year depending on what year it was (eg year 5 in 2005, year 8 in 2008 etc)
