School AssembliesOur school assemblies were often presided over by the local vicar, who once warned us of the dreadful dangers of mixing with "Rods and Mockers". One of the cool teachers laughed. Tell us about mad headteachers and assemblies gone wrong.
Inspired by the mighty @Rhodri on Twitter

Unconscious Co-operationThere was a particular physics teacher at my school. When explaining something he had a habit of inhaling, then exhaling audibly at the end of a sentence. The effect was something like: ehhhhhh, ahhhhhh. One morning in assembly he heard someone, among us rowdy lower 6th, gibbering or laughing. He walked along the row from whence he thought the noise was coming. As he passed up the line his progress was marked by a growing inhalation which stopped when he reached the end. It was followed as he moved back to his place at the side of the hall by a decaying ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. This was a totally spontaneous happening with no co-ordinator or preplanning. I don't think we even got the usual bollocking about respect for "The Lord". The incident was totally ignored by the powers that were.
