Did you get up to any antics in school?

Scott revealed this morning he put a dead hedge hog down a boy's back at primary school and was forced to go into the staff room.

Have you ever been sent to the staff room for some reason or did you get up to some strange antics during your school days?

All kinds of stuff. Our Latin teacher once smashed a window by mistake, so, days later a group of us had slates which, when dropped on the ground, sounded like a window breaking. We dropped them all just as Latin teacher was getting underway with the lesson, and his face went white when he thought yet another window was broken.

I was wild in my school days.

I also punched a boy on the nose during my biology class. I got sent to my housemaster for that.

I was really naughty at school. We once had biology first period on a really hot summers day, we were dissecting cows eyes and I had to clear up the mess at the end of the lesson, one of the bitchy girls was laughing at me so I saved loads of the chopped up cows eyes and popped them in her lunch box. mmmmm. I never got into trouble I was a real teachers pet. But the list of antics is very long.:D

Eh? Was he referring to an actual hog's head (rather large to force down the back of someone's blazer, I should imagine) or a hedgehog?

We used to make itching powder from rosehip seeds to bung down people's backs. I also had to clean the downstairs school lavatory at the age of 5 for chewing gum in front of the head mistress. Might explain my aversion to gum. Bley hate the stuff now.

Frequently had my belongings and food confiscated by horrible house mistress in the dormitory. I was only trying to organise a midnight feast...

Also pinched some potassium in chemistry and created a few home made explosions. Just add water.;)

HOW did I become a teacher?

Wow that'll teach me to instantly correct my spellings using a spell checker so early in the morning ;)

I had a website based on the school which was basically a mix of sexed-up reports about the teachers (some true as they were really poor) and a load of actual quotes in the style of Innuendo Bingo. (Although this was before I'd ever heard of Innuendo Bingo!) Anyway that was really popular until one goon printed it out and left it at the printer. Some teachers loved it but then the assistant head teacher found the print outs and instantly knew it was me. Rather than shout at me she just read it out in the French class I was attending and said whoever was doing it should stop it. To much sniggers from everyone around who knew it was me.

In my second to last year I also organised a "party" on April Fool's Day. I had a bit of a dislike for my useless Science teacher so I spread the word around to come to the Science room in Period 3. Everyone turned up to our lesson. There must have been near 500 people there with no clue what was happening. I don't think the teachers knew either... They had to all divert them to their lessons but it was a bit difficult one against 500.

We then wanted to top that two weeks later so we gave out 'invitations'. Stupid move because people left them on the floors so teachers picked them up. Every single person was talking about it. Then the head of year told us that if anyone turned up they would instantly receive a detention. Didn't stop two hundred people turning up and some getting locked in the room as the teacher went to get the head teacher. They all went out of the fire exit though ;)

Yeah I was an innocent child so it was easy to do these sort of things ;)

Why did you have slates at school Viv :confused:

:D Joking! I know you used them as plates to eat off!

:D Joking! You used them to write on didn't you?

Hoho very droll Rob. Yup, it was indeed all like this when Viv and I were at school;):

Nope. I never had detention or did anything and got away with it.

Aw c'mon. I was expecting something really good from you...

The angelic-looking kids can get away with murder. It certainly worked for me. I was a chubby little blonde cherubin!

you run geek world and you're a teacher? where do you find the time? all my teachers moan about how teaching takes up their lives.

i once locked my i.t teacher in her room and bailed down the stairs. the handle inside the door had broken off and there was a wooden block holding the door open, so me and my mate knocked it and bailed. never got caught either (Y)

Just the usual really - locking my French teacher in her book cupboard for most of the lesson, posting awful notes through people's lockers, stressing out my teachers and then somehow getting away with it, bunking off the headteacher's detentions...they found out but I somehow got away with it because I was small and blonde and innocent looking!

I was good in Primary School, even got Pupil of the Year....hmm. Perhaps when I was very little, as I remember exposing myself in the playground :D

Just detentions and rubbish I suppose because I don't get things done on time very often, too laid back, i.e. lazy/sleeping, in school to ever get in any real trouble.

I soooo do not run Geekworld. Jono is the 'grand fromage' on UM :D. Thanks for the nod though. I'm not teaching at the moment, so that would account for the amount of time I have to spend on here talking to you lovely people.

A bunch of us once took some Sodium from the Chemistry Labs and dropped them in the swimming pool, which caused some hilarity, especially as it was just before the swimming gala!

A boy in my house almost smacked someone with a female pleasure enhancing device!

We've done loads...Stuck people to chairs, Hide butterflys in a teachers classroom (she is TERRIFIED of butterflys) :) all the usual really!

Jono runs Geekworld? :o And all this time I thought it was Rob... :P

Anyways, just as a taster I received over 50 detentions at my high school in the 4 years I was there, attended 1 and never another, and was never followed up on any of them. and I managed to end up as a prefect whatever they are. But I was generally very good when I wasn't disrupting extremely boring Science lessons, Subconciously calling people very nasty things and err... grand theft. Grand Piano that is...

Okay kinda joking about the Grand Piano, I didn't steal it I just moved it to somewhere out of the way, I think they're still looking for it :P

I managed to get myself a pretty good reputation at school. I still remember, aged 15, my friend and I drinking beer in her room (boarding school) and we didn't have a bottle opener, so had to use my belt to open it, which resulted in a little beer spillage on my clothes and the floor. Then the teacher on duty came in to talk to us and must have known we were drinking beer, but didn't say anything.

We went to the pub quite a few times in sixth form and from year 9 onwards went to the beach or shopping when we were supposed to be doing sports.

Only got caught out a few times. I lied to my Latin teacher in my last year of school, while doing A2, because he knew I'd copied the work off the internet but I swore that I hadn't and I wasn't lying and I got away with it somehow... but that was my wake up call to do some actual work.

Still though, the best thing was in the first term of university, when half my year hid under the desks in the lecture theatre while the lecturer we didn't like was out of the room. He came in and didn't seem bothered, just got on with the lecture, so we all had to crawl sheepishly out and get back on the seats. It was brilliant, 100 students who barely knew each other, one person suggests "lets hide under the desks!" and everyone does it. And I thought students were supposed to be more mature than schoolkids...

    • I'm guessing there is also a stack of weekend events like Glastonbury
    • I think more likely it'll just be a temp presenter for weekends 1-4 to give Matt & Mollie time off, plus time to plan and pilot the new show.
    • Yeah I don’t think they’ll be anything that drastic - maybe a week or 2 of cover on early breakfast etc, but maybe just having that weekend afternoon slot covered over the summer means they can put someone on from September who maybe isn’t available until then? 
    • But they said the main changes would happen in July.
    • But they said the main changes would happen in July.
    • I wouldn't be surprised if they do this around June time: 05.00 Ore Olukoga 07.00 Greg James 10.30 RMC 14.00 VKJ  That'll probably happen (for my guess) from the 17th June. And for weekends: 07:00 Sam & Danni 11:00 Gregor Davidson 15:00 Charlie Hedges Maybe Fridays aswell: 07:00 Greg James 11:00 Gregor Davidson 14:30 Jack Saunders
    • The Summer on Radio 1 thing makes me wonder whether they might be doing something similar to last year again where they have a temporary schedule over the summer before introducing changes in September - maybe the new host won’t start until after the summer?
    • There was talk on my Big Weekend group from the council about them waiting for Ticketmaster to send an email out. They said they've been waiting a week. Maybe they're waiting for train strike confirmation first. 
    • It’s on Saturday and Friday that week too. I guess this would make sense, as it gives them roughly 6 weeks off weekends until they start the new show?
    • Yeah he's on more than usual including this Sunday and then 3 more shows in May according to the above. Makes me think it's James for the weekend shows also
    • For some reason there is 'Summer on Radio 1' listed on Sunday 2nd June, could this be replacing M&M until July?
    • They seem to be using James more for cover now makes me think it will be him getting weekends eitjer breakfast or 1 till 4 
    • Yep am very much Capital Breakfast now. Jordan, Chris and Sian are a great trio and it's got that feel of the old shows Jordan and Chris used to do on Radio 1. It doesn't take itself too seriously but is packed full of content and slick. With Greg he's great but 6 years in you've probably heard it all before plus frankly I can sit through the Capital Playlist a lot more easily than the Radio 1 playlist (where some of the inclusions and omissions can be quite baffling at times). Plus after things like the Oscars or Met Gala or if there's a particularly big TV show or film or popstar then Greg won't half wang on about it at times. I guess it's partly to be expected with it being a Breakfast show on a young station but it can feel very London bubble and get tired.
    • Ore Olukoga is in for Arielle on Tuesday 14th May. James Cusack is in for Danny Beard on Saturday 1st June. James Cusack is in for Nat on Sunday 2nd June.
    • I honestly never thought in a million years I’d move from Radio 1 to be a regular Capital breakfast show listener. But it’s got pretty much everything I want - 3 really genuine, entertaining mates having a laugh, playing silly games and it all sounds great. I became a big fan of Chris from his days with Scott, became a Jordan fan on Going Home, and Sian Welby is newer to me but is loads of fun too.  It’s great and I’ve shocked myself by transferring my listening at breakfast. For me Greg’s show now feels very tired and it’s time for something new. But with Jordan gone that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Greg’s had a great run and I’m a fan - but there’s no new ideas now. I still listen to Radio 1 at other times - but this show feels like very serious competition for Greg.
