# I never got entered for my GCSE ICT exam,
apparantly it would have cost the school too much money to enter us all.

So I gave their website an unofficial facelift, they weren't impressed.

It's actually still there, if you use archive.org

# Ha.
The exam was rubbish, there were no "What is the optimum sized liquify brush to use in order to make your teacher look like they're from League of Gentlemen?" questions.

# Unbelievable!
Nothing you'd need to know in the real world then? ;)

# GCSE ICT was the fucking stupidest thing ever. The coursework required no actual knowledge or even application of ICT, just writing fucking loads of shit that the teacher told you to.
And you had to do four of the fucking things, great 60 fucking page things.

I think I did the scantest amount and got a D for the coursework, but that only counted for about 45% anyway and ended up getting an A. Uppity non subject.

# In my school it was taught by teachers who for whatever reason weren't putting in enough hours.
We had this business studies teacher who just used to hand us the application manual whenever we asked a question.

# We had an actual ICT teacher, but that basically just consisted of a woman being really fucking uppity about coursework.
I swear I'd cave her head in if I saw her again today.

# I once brought a CD in to school
and one of the teachers said to the other
'Check it for viruses'
so he began inspecting the silver side, holding it up to the light to look for any creepy crawly bugs... heh.
