I hated all the schools I went to (except East Airport and my current university) and I’ve been to 11 schools
There was one teacher who used to seriously beat me because I was using my left hand to write
There was one headmistress who slapped me and got me suspended because I told a boy he was eating Always Ultra pad (the biscuit he was eating was called Always)
I used to paint and draw. I went to one school where the visual art teacher told me “You think you know better than everyone one”, never answered my questions, always lashing me for no reason. That’s why I don’t paint and draw (the one thing I was good at)
Another school where I was being bullied, the school shaped me in a very negative way mentally, even till date. That school only forms you to be an ass-kisser. I really regret not standing up for myself because what nkoa could’ve happened, unless clearing tables
Another school (jhs) where the teachers will intentionally fail you so that they can get extra money from your parents for extra classes. They’ll give those students the exam questions, and those who don’t do extra classes would do novdec questions on their own
Another school where the science teacher hated my guts because I didn’t want to go home with him and I told my mum. I spent 2 weeks in that school.
High school, my chemistry teacher was so mean to me, he told me I would never make it in life and I would fail my wassce. No, I wasn’t a bad student, and I wasn’t stubborn especially in his class. I’m still looking for him to throw my results in his face
There’s so many, I should write a book. In conclusion, I’m never sending my child to a school that allows teachers to lay their hands on kids. And to “reforming” schools where you’re taught your opinion doesn’t matter except those older than you
