jayboy Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I went to top public school in the UK. Conditions were worse than a prison and I hated everything about it. I learned absolutely nothing. I dropped out at 17 and travelled around the continent where my education began. I learned to speak another four languages fluently, two of which landed me very good jobs. I consider my public school education. A complete waste of money and time.Can you share with us which top public school you attended? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SC Aren't they called adult learners? I went to the same school as the famous shirt lifter Stephen Fry. Apart from shirts, he lifted our lovely matron's purse whilst we were watching football on her TV, the cad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fights every single day, the belt every second day... can't remember what happened on the thirds as I was busy dodging the kids jumping out of classroom windows.
