Although my school was placed as 3rd best in Gloucestershire, I have still learnt more life lessons from PERPHeads alone... Sometimes they could takes months to teach us pointless shit, I'd ask them "why do we need this in life?" My maths teacher once replied with "If you wanna be a builder!" This pissed me right off, it's a true story as well.
I still take it for granted though; not everyone gets an education!
