if you could change one thing about school what would it be?

You either love it, or hate it. I got mostly A*/A in GCSE aside from a D in maths, where I am re-sitting my maths in A2 for uni, I still hate it :l

Anyway, I'd change some of my teachers, they were awful and were uninspiring aside from my science teacher who was brilliant

Not sure if I've posted yet, but I absolutely hate how one certain teacher of mine asks people to read out in class. It's ridiculous, no one wants to and then he assigns someone to do it. I feel like we're 10.
Also working in pairs. It may be necessary for some things, but if you're a teacher and someone really doesn't want to do it and voices that to you, accept the fact that they're willing to try and also probably do it in their own time in a more comfortable setting. :/
