What was the craziest rumour at your school ?

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 ?

You should remove the names from this post

If you went to school you might have learnt to read.

Yea that's the thing. Besides the generic "Bloody Mary" "haunted stairs" stuff. Often these things are just bullying. I remember a. Few from my school years and it's not nice.

Ever since we has started in year 7, we had done fundraising for a new building to be built for 6th form. It still hadn't been built by the time we were on year 11. One of the deputy heads suddenly was no longer at school. There were rumours from him stealing the money, he had an affair with staff and students. Even a rumour he had a fight with a year 11.

Music teacher had affairs with 6th form girls who all had a very similar look.

Found out it was true, and was the reason for him being sacked from his previous high-brow private teaching position.

We either went to the same school or there was a lot of that about on the 90s!

TooExtraImmatureCheddar · 01/01/2025 21:00

That the elderly female PE teacher had a wooden tit. Many kids used to say things like “Wouldn’T IT be nice, miss…” as she looked bemused and the class fell about giggling.

The true one was that a supply teacher died on the toilet at school.

OnyourbarksGSG · 01/01/2025 21:02

Jesus the crime is hard with some of the rumours that went around or school.

one girl apparently had to have Fanny burn surgery as she used a frozen sausage to pop her cherry so it didn’t hurt or bleed when she “did it” with her boy friend.

another boy was called bubbles as he used hand soap to wank in the group shower on the school trip to France (this was actually true though, I was on the holiday but it became so much bigger than a teenage boy bashing his bishop).

Our mega fit PE teacher left to go live in Australia and compete in a sport professionally . Turned out he had died of a brain tumour.

i apparently had a baby and that’s why my attendance was so bad in year 10-11. It was actually my mother’s baby and she was just a shit mum so I’d walk around town with my newborn sister in a pram at the weekend to get her away from the constant smoking.

rubberducksarebastards · 01/01/2025 21:06

That the history teacher was having illicit liasons with some of the upper 6th. True

That the PE teacher was a p@edophile. Classic PE teacher= pervert rumour. Except this one was true and the teacher was convicted. Shame it took many years for this to happen because the teacher was creepy as you got.

Meltedwelly · 01/01/2025 21:10

@OnyourbarksGSG that reminds me of the lad caught by the window cleaner pleasuring himself with a shampoo bottle over his you know what.

That a girl put a mars bar inside her at a party

That another girl fucked a toilet brush

The 90's were wonderful in some ways and utterly misogynistic in other ways. There were no similar rumours about the boys 🙄

I remember the mars bar one in the 80s

at our school 12 year old pregnant with twins. It was true. Still seems strange that there are a couple of 40 year olds out there with a 52 year old mother.

DiamondGoldandSilver · 01/01/2025 21:18

That a boy from year 9 ran away to be with a girl he had fallen in love with, and his parents were receiving blackmail calls from members of her family. He did completely disappear without an explanation. This was in another country and not as impossible in that context as it may sound in the UK. I think some parts of it may have been true but am not sure.

That our history teacher (40s) had a relationship with a girl in year 11.

They got married a year after she left school and are still together.

I think you may have gone to the same school as me! The one I know had his baby at age 18 too 😞

Cattenberg · 01/01/2025 21:23

That one of our French teachers got locked in a cupboard one Friday afternoon and wasn’t found until Monday, which sent him a bit mad. This apparently happened two or three years before I started at the school.

Buttons0522 · 01/01/2025 21:24

We had ‘the candy man’ in the mirror not Bloody Mary.

There was also the rumour of the old woodwork teacher with a glass eye who would ask girls to stand on the bench to demonstrate something, take out his eye and and put it on the bench to see up their skirts. My older cousins took great joy in telling me this many times over when it was revealed I would be in his form!

Fireydog · 01/01/2025 21:28

A few that I remember

The head of 6th was married to a past student of his - true

A girl gave a boy a blow job behind the old PE changing rooms, she spat his semen out into a test tube during science.

A girl ran away from home after GCSEs with her boyfriend. Her family didn’t approve of their relationship. It was true and surprised everyone.

The head of year 11 was a pervert, he did actually leave quietly after we were all interviewed after a couple of girls reported him after being caught bunking to get themselves out of trouble!

Our tyrant of a head teacher was taken ill during the school day and was taken off to hospital by ambulance. Rumour was he'd had a heart attack and died. Vivid memories of dozens of students hanging out of the windows cheering as the ambulance departed. He survived.

Meltedwelly · 01/01/2025 21:29

Was there ever a secondary/sixth form where a tall rakish male teacher wasnt accused of shagging the 6th formers?!

Supermonstermaniac · 01/01/2025 21:30

We had the ‘spooky toilets’ that no one use to like to go into. They were only used if all of the other toilets were busy. The rumour was that a girl went there on Friday and fell asleep the care taker locked her in and she had to spend all weekend there. When they found her she was white and hiding in the corner screaming.

Another was this girl found a pip in her vagina and the rumour was that she had inserted an orange into it.

It was a flute rather than a test tube at our school

"This one time at band camp..."

Flutes don't smash though.

We had a similar rumour about one of our woodwork teachers.

Apparently, he liked to lean back in his chair because he had an arrangement of mirrors under his desk to enable him to see up girls’ skirts.

GrandTheftWalrus · 01/01/2025 21:43

That a girl had "fun time" with a crunchie.

That a PE teacher was having an affair with a student in the year above me (year 9, so she would have been 14). It transpired to be true, and the teacher was sacked and later hung himself when the affair was discovered.

It’s not really an affair though is it. It’s grooming and child abuse.

That Mrs H, the RE teacher wasn't plumbed right and gave birth to her daughter through her arse.
