do you/did you enjoy yr time in education?

[Neversoft]

I found school completely boring and most of my experiences rather expendable. Nothing really happened at school, it's just a place I went to and learnt a bit and played with my friends and done some stupid stuff and that was it. But college was the best years of my life, so much happened, I made some brilliant friends and for the first time in my life I felt like I was getting somewhere. University so far has been rather mixed, some days I enjoy it, others I don't, but all in all it's okay. Education for me has been a mixed bag, but college made up for all the bad times. Tenfold.

I really hate school. I want a new start and new friends.
I dislike the teachers, 99% of the people there and I don't feel comfortable at all there. My friends don't understand me and whenever I'm at school all I think about is coming home. Even the subjects I like I don't enjoy because of the teachers and the class. Can't wait for a new start.

I hate school.
I hate the students and the teachers (the ones I know). I don't hate people for no reason, I just hate them if they hate me.

I just can't wait to get to university and to get a job and my own house. It'll be the actual start of my life.

Pre-secondary was OK, though I don't really remember it.

I didn't like the first few years of secondary but year 10 and 11 was good and I wished I had more time in year 11, it was easily my best year in education so far. Currently, college is pretty **** to be honest and I really cannot wait to leave next year (hopefully).

Hoping university will be good if I go.

i love it atm, only have a few weeks left though and i really dont want to leave

i went through a phase of hating school and just wanting to grow up in year 8/9 although i think that was because i was doing a lot of subjects i didn't like and was having quite a few issues with friends too. i still dislike the school although gcses was where it all changed for me - i picked subjects i knew i'd enjoy / be able to do well in and i made a lot of new friends and i've ended up in quite a large friendship group but i absoloutely love it. i get on with pretty much everyone and just generally have a laugh in lessons.

i won't miss the school itself or most of my teachers/subjects, but i am going to miss just seeing everyone every day.

Best years of my life, hands down. I was at the top of the social ladder, always in top classes doing well without a single spit of effort being put in, got on with most of my teachers, fell in love, and was basically just having the time of my life. Would honestly give so much to be that carefree and ignorant again

Had a horrible start. In reception had the worst teacher ever who'd shout at me cos I couldn't draw. lol seriously. still can't draw btw, don't think I ever really liked art after that. Thankfully I ended up moving schools and had a much better education from there. I still enjoy it now at uni and I'm one of those annoying geeks who gets bored after like a week during the summer holidays. I just want to learn new things or have a debate with someone (although not geeky enough to miss writing essays, no way). I graduate from uni next year and am completely dreading it. It's a big step and I'll miss the comfort zone of saying "im at school/college/uni" to avoid those rather big steps. I'm comfortable with the system, I don't wanna leave but that's what it's all for so onwards and upwards.

Sorta, but i wouldn't say it was the best

[shiver]

i generally liked secondary school, had a good group of friends, got on well with teachers and got good grades without really putting much effort in lol

i LOVED sixth form and now that i'm at uni i miss it even more. same group of friends, everyone seemed to mature and it was nice. got good grades without really trying again, i just got bored by a-levels and the narrow curriculum

liking uni for the most part but it requires more effort and my attention span is ridiculously little so i get bored easily. but i'm doing alright grade wise!!! one thing i dislike is some flatmates but they're tolerable, i couldn't choose them and don't have long left to live with them

Had lots of ups and downs. I used to get really good grades(all As) but I disliked certain teachers and some ***** in school used to tease me everyday. they bullied me for 1 or 2 years and when i finally wanna be rebellious, my grades dropped badly and a lot of stuff happened y'no. that doesnt mean I didnt enjoy it. I like the feeling of having something to do in my life and if I could just turn back time, I'll put in more effort to get good grades. I miss school days i guess things arent the same anymore as we grow older..

hated it except I.T and Biology.
when i was in school everyone kept telling me "you'll miss these years they're the best of your life" but I don't miss it at all.
hated it so much i left at 15

what happened after 15?
