But my friend from this \"school\" (if you could even call it that) has just revealed to me through tears that that is not the case.\n\nWhilst the oddly shaped canteen in Hardenhuish School bless the pupils with fish and chips on Fridays and indulge them with hand-picked paninis from the Facupo trees of the Spawnufay mountains; Sheldon students are only given one lettuce leaf. Many rebels have tried to bring their own packed lunches, but the teachers always find them and you don't want to know what happens next.\n\nMy friend also expressed that any \"blasphemy\" (as they call it) about this school will is swiftly terminated (so I very much hope that this review stays up). Someone in my friend's maths class said to a member of \"staff\" that something should be done about the lack of chairs in the canteen. He was never seen again. I'm surprised to see that no one has spoken about this; but then again, if someone did they would be met with the same fate.\n\nMy friend also said that the corridors are the equivalent of no man's land in the time of the great wars. As you would battle your way through the \"big kids\" with rucksack shields and football boots catapulted onto the heads of innocent youths, you realise that you have gone through all this chaos for a physics lesson. My friend has shown me many bruises and scratches from her perilous quests to her art class and trust me, must of them don't look like they were made by a human. It also doesn't help that the corridors smell like floors were polished with feline urine.\n\nI'm not even forgetting the fact that the teachers expect the students to invent teleportation in order to get to their lessons on time. If, say, period one ends at 10:20, then period two would start at 10:20. Many students have had detentions because of their \"lateness\" as a result of this. I know that as a species we have come far with technology advancing at such a fast rate, but we're just not ready for teleportation yet. Even if we were, then it wouldn't be responsible to give such technology and power to the whippersnappers of our society.\n\nAnd whilst I thought that the handful of robot teachers was bad at Hardenhuish, it is a much bigger problem over at Sheldon. A few examples include: a geography teacher who rambles on about how we \"petty humans\" will suffer at the literal iron fist of the oncoming robot revolution; an art teacher who only lets their students create ~ahem~ explicit images of binary; and, of course, many of them responding to human emotions in the same way that Mr Mustard does at Hardenhuish.

But my friend from this \"school\" (if you could even call it that) has just revealed to me through tears that that is not the case.\n\nWhilst the oddly shaped canteen in Hardenhuish School bless the pupils with fish and chips on Fridays and indulge them with hand-picked paninis from the Facupo trees of the Spawnufay mountains; Sheldon students are only given one lettuce leaf. Many rebels have tried to bring their own packed lunches, but the teachers always find them and you don't want to know what happens next.\n\nMy friend also expressed that any \"blasphemy\" (as they call it) about this school will is swiftly terminated (so I very much hope that this review stays up). Someone in my friend's maths class said to a member of \"staff\" that something should be done about the lack of chairs in the canteen. He was never seen again. I'm surprised to see that no one has spoken about this; but then again, if someone did they would be met with the same fate.\n\nMy friend also said that the corridors are the equivalent of no man's land in the time of the great wars. As you would battle your way through the \"big kids\" with rucksack shields and football boots catapulted onto the heads of innocent youths, you realise that you have gone through all this chaos for a physics lesson. My friend has shown me many bruises and scratches from her perilous quests to her art class and trust me, must of them don't look like they were made by a human. It also doesn't help that the corridors smell like floors were polished with feline urine.\n\nI'm not even forgetting the fact that the teachers expect the students to invent teleportation in order to get to their lessons on time. If, say, period one ends at 10:20, then period two would start at 10:20. Many students have had detentions because of their \"lateness\" as a result of this. I know that as a species we have come far with technology advancing at such a fast rate, but we're just not ready for teleportation yet. Even if we were, then it wouldn't be responsible to give such technology and power to the whippersnappers of our society.\n\nAnd whilst I thought that the handful of robot teachers was bad at Hardenhuish, it is a much bigger problem over at Sheldon. A few examples include: a geography teacher who rambles on about how we \"petty humans\" will suffer at the literal iron fist of the oncoming robot revolution; an art teacher who only lets their students create ~ahem~ explicit images of binary; and, of course, many of them responding to human emotions in the same way that Mr Mustard does at Hardenhuish.
