A large shitty school where all the displaced kids from oxford hills are crammed.

Treorchy comprehensive school

A pile of shit with nerds, geeks and savages
If you’re a druggie behind the barn is for you. If you’re a nerd then you’ll get bullied.

Always a popular group who hates other groups and thinks they’re it. All girls wear makeup even when it’s a “strict school”. Boys no under 2 cuts, hehe.

If you go down pupil support (unit) then you’re it as it’s such a big deal. So easy to get a detention though, just say something to the teacher and magically you have a detention. Unless you’re that nerd who every teacher likes.

*No phones* fucking bullshit

This place should go burn down fp

Someone add to this because I don’t know fuck all to say
Let’s go to treorchy comprehensive school, we can smoke behind the barn then

comprehensive education

British socialist experiment (further enhanced by successive generations of hapless politicians) that forced fee paying schools out of business, raised the school leaving age and tried to give all children between 4 and 16 a basic education in several subjects. 'Basic' is about as good as it gets for most victims forced as they are into mind-numbing boredom, despair and violence. Most schools are like open, juvenile prisons. Still, American state schools make every one of 'em look like Oxford!
teenage pregnancy? routine bullying? can't read and write without the aid of 15 years further education? teacher's all suicidal? no future? no motivation? no prospects? It has to be comprehensive education!
