Re: Were You A Prefect At School? Or Something Else?

At my school, if you made it to the Sixth Form, you were automatically made a prefect. We were expected to supervise detentions which was great fun. My mate and I always took a record player into detention and played the latest songs - Beatles, Stones, Dylan, Procul Harum. Kids would beg to be given their detention on our days.
About two months before our A level exams, half the Sixth Form were suspended from school (for having long hair and showing a poor example to the younger pupils). We were only allowed in for after school tutorials and the actual exams. We loved that!

Unfortunately, I was a 'gifted child' - a very isolating experience.

I wasn't a prefect...I have never been too good with rules generally not that I went around breaking them but I wouldn't have made a good prefect.

I did my best to be a safe haven for the Bully Fodder, the role never had an official title.
