Does your work(School) have any stupid rules/policys?

[rockera]

Ha two of my friends were holding hands and the head teacher walked past and gave them a lecture on canudaling (I think that's how its spelt)his very words.

My old pre school now has a ban on balls (no jokes) and year 3's and lower aren't allowed in the same part of the playground as the year 4's and up.

It was my first day at 6th form today, and teachers and 6th form students have to wear (what I've named) a Paedo Pass around their necks.

Feels like they're being overly-cautious to me.

Yep, entering Year 13 and we've suddenly been issued with these for "health and safety" reasons. The passes themselves are going to strangle everyone. I had honestly hoped the new government would be less insane when it came to health and safety. Perhaps some Lib Dems snuck in.

my old primary school had onhe where when you had finished lunch, you couldn't leave the room until you got permission by any of the cooking staff there.

Well, in my grade school I went to before high school they had this stupid thing over the summer called "math packets" they are like 25 pages long and 10-10 problems each page, luckily it did not include algebra, but still, it's a pain in the ass, it ruins summer. Then again, it's a high-class private school. So, meh.

the can't wear offensive clothes at my middle school went way to far. yea ok makes sense that you can' wear any thing that devotes your eternal love to Hitler, that makes sense. but what the vice principle used as an example of offensive t-shirts was one that said boys are smelly with a stick figure on it that had stink lines coming out of it. Really? i would not be offended by it, but would wear it for the sake of irony.

I was never fond of that guy... he is a more politically correct than public service announcement, and follows the stereotype that every minor is a to-be juvenile if not already so and so they should be treated as such.

I still dont understand the whole "took your shirt in" at high school. It did'nt affect how I acted or what my test scores came out as, what benefits did it bring to my education??

 

[nuqneh1]

Theres a rule where you can't wear hats in school. Also i can't wear my Half-life 2 Shirt because it "promotes rioting."( It has a fist clenching a crowbar with the word RESIST under it)

Really? i would not be offended by it, but would wear it for the sake of irony.

Because you are a boy who isn't smelly right? Not because it's merely funny? One of those entails irony; the other does not.

OT: My school also dictates, for non-Sixth Formers, when they can wear their polo shirts. Even if it's as warm as hell, they may only wear these polo shirts for certain months. At least we don't have blazers as part of the school uniform.

Stupid rules in my school
No long hair for boys.
No facial hair
Keep every shirt button in.
Can't take off blazer without permission.
One piece of jewlery only
Only piercings can be small studs.
No phones out on school premises.
No shagging (ok, I made that one up....Shaggings fine)
No eating cantine food outside of the cantine, although packed lucnches are fine to eat anywhere.
Must stay outside during rain (unless you want to hang out in the Library or the overcrowed cantine or 6th form centre( just for 6th forms).
No individuality!!
Have to wear the new school sports kit when doing anything active (my old one is fine, just 'cause they got a new design, dosn't mean I should buy one that for £50 and only use it for a year.
Silence (children should be seen not heard) during class or study periods.
No calmly explaining to the teachers, that their rules are bullshit.

But other than that it's okay.

My highschool had a LACK of policy: we had no P.E. uniforms. So yeah, you wore a Polo, a tie, slacks and leather shoes when you're out in the quadrangle playing Badminton.

EDIT:
They did have a heckuva lot of rules for hair of boys. No long hair (ears must me clearly visible) but you can't shave your head (not skinhead, cuz that would be weird. Only that you can't have your hair follow the contours of your head). No hair products (you can't use styling gel/wax). Also, no wristwatches. Yeah, my highschool was draconian.

we aren't allowed to throw snowballs

This is the only ridiculous rule my school has. It's freaking winter! Winter without snowball fights just isn't the same!

Yes, but that's when assholes start throwing iceballs.

This year, my school's really cracking down.

During lunch, one of my friends nicked the crusts from my pizza and proceeded to use them as pseudo-nipples (or something like that). He got a week's worth of either IRP (in-school suspension) or having to eat lunch in the office, I can't remember which. This was on the first day of school, even. Apparently it counted as sexual harassment.

It's because you could have a gun or something...

Is this all the members of the escapist have? I was hoping for some really insane rules. Oh well I guess my secondary school was just much worse than everybody else's. And here is why.

The teachers drew a massive red line half way across the school. Nobody was allowed to go past this line to the bottom half of the school. Unfortunately the bottom half of the school had a beautiful open eating area with benches, a nice patch of sun blessed grass surrounded by flowers and trees and a tennis court. The bottom half of the school was also the entrance of the school, and it was where the receptionist was, so in order to go visit the receptionist you had to go get a permission slip or risk capture by the patrolling teachers who presumably had nothing better to do.

You were never allowed to remove your big stuffy school sweater unless the teachers publicly declared you could, which they never did. This is especially fun in summer.

At the top of the school was a MASSIVE field of grass that nobody was allowed to go on. Even though it was so big it was actually bigger than the school itself. And was owned by the school.

Students were forbidden from using corridors. Let me repeat that, not only were you not allowed to stand around in the corridors but you were actually questioned by a teacher if they so much as saw you travelling through one.

The students were not allowed to play in the same areas of the school, different age groups were not allowed to interact.

If a student is assaulting another student, the teacher turns a blind eye. Then afterwards he will run over and give a detention to the distraught victim. This never happened to me but happened countless times to other people right before my eyes.

At least one of our teachers was a pedophile who had to be arrested after having sex with an under aged girl, another was almost definitely a pedophile from what I saw of him trying to make us all jump of eachothers backs and suchlike and invite us back alone afterwards, all of which I refused to do. Another teacher went insane and had to leave for some time, only to return later. Another teacher often pulled chairs out from under the asses of his students just to watch them collapse onto the ground, this same teacher also never taught us anything at all which is why the entire class failed.

So in conclusion my school was near to collapse with anarchy when I left, good fuckin riddance.

I don't mind uniform as much, as I actually *like* wearing suits

Overall my school doesn't seem to be too crazy, most decisions come down to teachers' judgment rather than official policy.
