This was suprisingly effective. All we did was paper the school with a teacher's name.

Just his last name. On little scraps of paper stuck onto pipes as you walked past. Or dropped as cryptic litter.

The effect? Every class he took would be asking him why his name was everywhere. He had no answer.

And gradually the posters started saying 'Teacher's Name for President' 'For Pope' 'has been abducted by Aliens'.

All culminating with a giant 'TEACHER'S NAME' in A4 sized letters taped above the lunch counter just before break (had to run like the blinders to get downstairs in time to stroll into the hall just behind the teacher and the Headmaster).

Its a bit like Chinese water torture, the young kids especially became completely unteachable as they pestered the teacher to find out what was going on.

That's fantastic
Much better than a straightforward physical prank. The poor guy must really have got paranoid.

We had a similar thing at my school
Same thing - no one knows who started it or where it came from, but instead of being a teacher's name - it was the phrase:

"Who's your mother?"

Mr Cook
We did similar to our history teacher by just saying his name all the time - except it came out "Hoo-hee"

He had a nervous breakdown
