My first impressions of Forest were how big it was and how small I was in comparison. We spent our first two periods with Mr Rudge, our form tutor learning the do’s and don’ts of the school. But when fourth period came my career at Forest didn’t get off to such a good start. I went to the wrong English classroom and after 10 minutes of odd glances from the teacher and my fellow pupils I was finally told that I was looking at the wrong part of my planner by the person I was sitting next to. As I wondered through the hallways in search of my proper class I realised I was the only one still left in the halls. As it was I ended up 15 minutes, half my actual lesson late as we had early lunch that day.
I was the only one going from my school; everyone else went to Crispin’s; since then I’ve found my way around the school and realised how much I prefer it to my old one (sorry Mrs. Adams- if there). The teachers and students have been very welcoming and as long as you work hard you’ll be fine and excel. And even if you didn’t do well in your SATs you get a second chance in the Forest’s separate tests.
Possibly-(In every school you go to there is a rewards system but my opinion is that Forests is the best. As you strive to achieve your best you gain comms a sort of merit which go towards prizes as you hit milestones).
