What was the craziest rumour at your school ?

[wriggleigglepiggle]

Ours was that the maths teacher left because he was Mr January in a porn mag, nicknamed 'Billy big balls'. Everyone knew of someone who knew someone who'd seen it.

What nonsense went round your school ?

@Thaiyogamassage I remember that one!

Forgot to add that when we were in primary school there were various rumours about the local secondary modern and we were all terrified of going there. Most popular rumour was that the school was the inspiration for grange hill!

Did those of us young enough to have computers at secondary school have the video of the monkey doing a wee in its own mouth get shared relentlessly in IT lessons?

North Ayrshire ?

A beer bottle at the park at mine !

I posted about Bloody Mary being in the wardrobe, and I can also confirm, as a primary teacher, that she also continues to apparently live in primary school toilets.

At our first school we were all convinced that at the middle school up the hill that we would go to aged 9, you had to work in silence AT ALL TIMES and they still used the cane.

This was the mid 90s.

Names have been changed. 1975.

Sister Margaret Mary (cookery) and Miss Hobson (science teacher)
were having a lesbian relationship and left to live together.
I left school in 1976.

It did turn out to be true.

Our lower and upper schools were separate and you had the fear of god put into you that when you went to the upper school the older kids gave you an initiation involving being held upside down with your head in the toilet while someone flushed it.

The French teacher and maths teacher at my middle school married each other.

That my brothers mate could give himself a blow job
I never asked and hes never seemed to have had a girlfriend the whole time I've known him

That one girl was pregnant (true)

That about 5 teachers reeeaaallllllyyy liked the girls-the younger the better
I'd say at least two did

That a girl had hit a teacher over the head with a hammer
She had-she could have killed that teacher
All the teacher did 'wrong' is tell the girl to leave the cdt block and the girl grabbed the hammer

At least 4 teachers suddenly left and it was claimed they had nervous breakdowns (true)

It was a bloody rough school

The kid that was swinging on his chair and died (sometimes also included him having a pencil up his nose)

A girl in my year apparently smeared dog food over her genitals then got her dog to lick it off! Another girl in our year was there and claimed it was true, but who knows? 😬

Went to school in an old mansion.
Three teachers died by falling down the stairs and their heads fell off, the ghosts were still there
Lots of other ghosts, a war happened on site and ghost tours still happen.
There is a secret tunnel connecting the school too the old castle.

Not a rumour, very true indeed.
A teacher walked into a classroom late, class were being silly, testing their luck a bit and he just slapped a pupil full board round the face. Knocked him flying.
He was asked to resign before they sacked him.

And also bullying!

Around 1971, a skinhead gang were coming to school to cause havoc. They would ask Can your mum sew? then slash your face. We were all terrified but it was just a rumour.

In 6th form, a chemistry teacher was shagging one of the 6th form pupils (correct, it was my friend, in the lab after school).

Yeah the classic pencil up the nose during an exam, then bashing head downwards puncturing the brain. Instant death and everyone in the exam hall got a pass. 90's urban legends were peak times.

That sounds familiar. I’m sure I’ve heard that rumour before. Maybe we went to the same school! Or maybe it was a popular school rumour.

One Yr11 girl was having an affair with the school bus driver. His wife started coming to work with him because of it.

New, young(ish) drama & english teacher played male lead in the school production and got the 6th former female lead pregnant. She had an abortion. He got the sack. Upper Sixth students were banned from productions after that.

Two PE teachers were married. He had affair with the other PE teacher and left wife for her.

Girl in Yr10 only got her saturday job in the fruit & veg shop by giving the greengrocer blow jobs in the stock room.

Male History & RE teacher had a liking for boys and had his "favourites". Would ask them to stay behind to restack textbooks in his office, and close the door.

ALL TRUE

Did we go to the same school? SJC? 😳

My mum had a music teacher in the 70s who ended up marrying one of her friends from 6th form but he had a reputation for them. He taught me in the 00s too!

I went to an old school which was a listed building so there was always stories about hauntings. Everyone knew someone who knew someone who'd seen things 🤣

Mine was that the very stern and strict female teacher in my middle school, who would shout and get very red in the face if your pencil accidentally rolled off your table, had actually had her fanny stitched up. All this because she was ‘old’ ( probably only 60) and lived with another woman. Funnily enough the thought she may be gay was never mentioned. I was around 10.

lol I remember that one!

You should remove the names from this post

That there was a sinister gang called The Moonies who turned up in town occasionally to kidnap kids. They’d cut off your fingers and send them back to your parents.
