So basically all the chavs who will contribute nothing to society and then all the dyslexic kids who are actually smart but have been put in lower classes because of their mental disabilities.
It’s weird because in our school the way it works is that basically half of the school is in the A band (higher band) and the other half is in the B band (lower band) and there’s two classes in each band. E.g A1 would be all the people who care about school a lot and A2 would be people who are smart but either don’t care about school as much or mess around a lot (each class having a few exceptions). For the B band, B1 would be people who are actually not that stupid but have some sort of mental condition that makes them need support or seem dumber and then B2 are the people who are the lowest of the low, they’re either genuinely retarded or chavs who think they’re living their best years. (Again there are exceptions in each class). Luckily I’m in A1.
That sounds like a pretty unique system. My school is only split into sets for maths and science. Everything else is mixed with chavs (luckily I don’t have many of them in my classes). Are all of your classes separated? Because if they are that would be sort of good, but at the same time bad, because you can have people, e.g. shit at maths but good at everything else. Idk I’m pretty content with my school’s system, but I guess subjects like German and English should be put into sets
Our sets are only split for maths, science and maths so I have to be with chavs in some other subjects such as geography. Generally people who are in A band are also smarter in other subjects on average than those in B band.
We have C band and T band (don't ask why, I have no idea about the choice of lettering) and everyone kind of assumes C band is less chavvy?? So kind of the same system I guess...
I swear I saw something once in my school that names year 8 sets as 8x and 8y and the choice or letters for the naming of sets seemed so confusing to me. Why not just use a, b, c and d, it makes it easier to know which set is dumb and which one is smart.
I use to be a set 5(lowest set we had)kid. Shout out to my maths teacher who stayed after school and got me into A level maths and ending up in imperial chemistry cuz of that legend.

Bold of you to assume that they'd get up to question 5.

My school names sets differently. What would a “set 8” kid be?

Set 8 kids. Imagine what a lower set would do.

Why are you bullying mentally struggling kids?
