They Have Done It Again

As my regular readers will know, my school has a habit of punishing everyone for a few incidents involving only certain pupils. However, recently, they allowed the senior prefects to use keep their phones on them and use them in a common room. Today though, they decided to take that away from us all.

Because of ONE incident in the common room, nobody is allowed in there for the rest of term. Some people were not in there at the time, some of us were not even on the school site because we were performing in the school production. And yet we are all getting punished. Also, we are no longer allowed to keep our phones on us during the school day, even though that is an unrelated privilege.

We have been told that if we want to be allowed to have our common room back again, we all need to earn back their trust. This is an interesting concept as some of us did nothing to break their trust in the first place.

So, it looks like they have done it again. How am I supposed to control the idiots in my year group when I am not even in the same post code? And there was me thinking the prefect privileges were a start in ending punishments for the masses when only a minority were involved. If we ran the world this way, we would all be in prison.
