      I mostly enjoyed school, a though there were some things that I didn’t enjoy. I enjoyed some subjects more than others such as science, maths and P.E but I really hated English and French. I found these really hard as I didn’t enjoy writing essays and doing speaking tests. The one thing I really enjoyed about school was playing sports and I was part of the hockey and football teams.

      Being part of a team or club (it doesn’t have to be sports) is something that I would always encourage people to do as you get to meet lots of new friends who all share the same hobby as you. I joined the football team when I went to University, which is where I met some of my best friends.

      Mostly! I also enjoyed certain subjects more than others. I loved Maths, Science, Art, English and French. I used to hate P.E. because I was never that good at sports. Though I seemed to enjoy them more after leaving school – I trained for 2 years in boxing & kickboxing. Wish they’d taught that in P.E. class!

      Hi Dylan,

      As like Sarah & Priyanka, I mostly enjoyed school – I just kind of got on with it really. I wasn’t particularly spectacular at anything or really bad at anything, just sort of sat in the middle. I had a very short attention span and tended to get bored quite quickly so the more engaging subjects/ teachers were my favourites.

      Much the same as everyone else, I mostly enjoyed it. You will never forget some of the things you have learnt at school so its best to make the most out of it.
      My favourite subjects were the subjects I found interesting or challenging, Physics and P.E for me as I have always enjoyed learning about how things work and equally love my different sports. My least favourite was French but looking back I wished I paid more attention as now I work with some French engineer’s and it could be very useful.
