Mum: Claire, you really need to get some short sleeved t-shirts and open shoes now it's summer! You can't wear knitwear all the time!
Me: I think I'll just stay inside thanks...

I hate feet so much. I wish we were like bratz dolls and just clicked shoes into our ankles.

At my school, if you fail all of your exams, you have to can resit the year with the year below.

Let’s all pause and imagine how horrific that would be.

At my school if you fail all of your exams you’d better have had some serious incapacitating disease if you want to resit the year, they just kick you out otherwise.

Tiffin > Nonsuch, yet again.

I think it’s so they can remove the Es and Us from the ‘grades for this year’ sheet on the website and league tables etc…

A grammar school actually doing something nice purely for its students? Perish the thought!

That would be madness, sheer madness.

At my sister’s school they give them a little speech before results day about how it’s not the grades on a piece of paper that matter; it’s the love and enthusiasm that you bring to life that counts! (Depressingly, my sister’s actually cleverer than me)

We just got a letter saying “In case you weren’t already aware, CAMBRIDGE AND UCL WANT A*s NOW SO YOU’D BETTER FUCKING GET THEM.” I’m half expecting to find the prospectus for Coombe stapled to my results this year.

My sister gets those talks - it’s not the winning, it’s the taking part! You don’t have to be academic to succeed! And she’s so much more studious and tries way harder than I do…

In my maths report one of my teachers wrote how I not only NEED to get As, but make sure I have very high UMS in order to get into a ‘good university’.
