The ‘cool teacher’ was the Music Teacher Mr Rendall. But then he lost his rag and hit one of the unruly kids for fucking about with the guitars and a bit of a scuffle ensued
He wasn’t cool after that

My Science teacher who looked like Harry Potter ran into our ICT class and was freaking out saying “that’s it! We’re all doomed!” Incredible memory

I thought about how bad it would be if I started giggling during the 9/11 assembly which kind of set my ten-year-old self off a little bit. Not too noticeable though. Then I caught my friend’s eye, he clocked what was going on, started giggling a bit too. Thus began a sort of feedback loop and before you know it, there’s two kids absolutely pissing themselves laughing during a very solemn assembly about a very horrible chapter in international history. We got sent to the headteacher’s office.

Nope but was described multiple times as a “psycho” after a deranged cover performance of some Nirvana songs at a Christmas battle of the bands where I ended up rolling around on the ground while screaming the words and kicking my bass.

I got sent to the headteacher’s office once. It’s when I discovered that he had one of my art projects on his wall - a soviet propaganda style edgelord thing featuring tony blair. when he called me in and read my name and offence, and asked me if that was my artwork on his wall, his countenance totally changed and he basically shooed me away and said something like ‘be more careful around teachers with your shirt untucked’ (my school had a properly fascistic no tolerance policy on untucked shirts).
a proper comrade.

Strap yourselves in for long boring story.
I used to love drama as a kid and was in the local amateur youth dramatic club. When I was about 14 they switched from rehearsals at the local church to the school hall at my secondary school. As part of this we were allowed to use the teachers toilets as the main toilets were closed at that time of night. One week I used them and had a smelly shit so sprayed some air freshener afterwards.
The next week I went along as normal, and late in the evening the fire alarm went off. Didn’t think anything of it and we all filed out.
Next morning there is a summons for me to go to the headteacher’s office. When I got there he accused me of having set off the fire alarm using said air freshener. I can’t remember all the details but I even remember him saying ‘we have your fingerprints on the can’.
Obviously I denied it as I didn’t do it. I spent the next three months having irregular ‘chats’ with my evil head of year who would say to me ‘are you ready to confess yet?’ And one week I snapped and said ‘look would it make it easier for you if I just said I did it even though I didn’t?’
She gave up soon after.
I still have so many questions about this. Obviously there is no way they got my fingerprints from the can - but how did they know I had used it? I don’t recall telling anyone - so was this just some weird coincidence? And also, who the fuck DID set off the fire alarm?
