  • Most people would run a mile rather than join a room full of teenagers for their school dinner.
    At best, you might imagine making awkward conversation with sullen adolescents, at worst, a Grange Hill-style food fight.
    What actually happened at the Michaela Community School - dubbed “Britain’s strictest school” - was certainly noisy, but not in the way you might expect...

    Any parents who send their kids here need to be looked at by social services

    Anyone who thinks this is bad doesn't know what a normal, non-selective inner city school is like. This place looks brilliant.

    All of the people calling this “child abuse” were clearly allowed to do anything they want to in school and never got punished.

    Casual 5 hour dt for forgetting a pencil

    I do understand how westerners find this school so hard to believe it’s good for children but I can tell this school will be hugely popular with Asian and African background parents - they want their children to focus on education and not on things like being bullied and teachers having no control over how to discipline students. My mother despaired of the schools I went to, as a Japanese mother she couldn’t believe how chaotic and the lack of discipline and rules of western schools and she always wished she could’ve had money to send me to a private school but I said mum they are getting just as bad lol - but this was back in the 90s 😅

    I attended a high school with very similar policies to this. You could be punished and get detentions and demerits (The school also implemented a merit/demerit disciplinary system) for minor offenses, such as forgetting equipment, having the wrong shade/colour of clothing, having a shirt untucked, having a top button undone, your tie at the incorrect length, your hair too long or short. I could write a novel on the youtube comment system. Teachers would force you to run laps, and you had to stand when teachers entered the room. I once got in trouble for forgetting to underline the date on a homework assignment (Evening detention for me). I once remember a maths teacher slamming his fist onto a table and telling a young boy that he would make him cry in front of all his friends if he could not sit still (I think he may have had ADHD) Humiliating punishments were common. I am in my 30's now. I love my parents and they thought they were doing the best for me by fighting to get me into a school that boasted about having a high number of graduates who went on to the best colleges and ultimately universities such as Oxford and Cambridge. I hated every minute of it. When I went to college and university and met other people, I began to realize that not everyone had the same experience as me. I did have a few lovely teachers there, but, very few. Most were just on a power trip. Yes, the school had the best exam performances around, but the pastoral care was abysmal. Going from a lovely village primary school to there was a shock for me. One good thing it did for me though, was it made me more compassionate towards young people.

    Probably the search history of these kids is probably: 'top 5 best ways to escape school while in detention'

    The sec school I studied in 2015-2021 in HK did really well after having a similar model for online learning classes during covid. Despite such a difficult year, the DSE class of 2021 returned the best result in the school's history in terms of people meeting the university admission benchmark (85.3%, beating the 84.7% set in 2014), and the overall performance was really strong, with many subjects returning their best performance in years. The first A level cohort also did really well.

    The headteacher talking about detentions are very normal until you realise that the detentions are apparently 5 HOURS LONG !!!!

    Is it true that they’re not allowed to talk to their friends unless given permission and also in the hallways to and from

    They say successful which essentially means that they’ll have a moderately paid office job
