    Walking to school is very common in the U.K. my friend, it is actively encouraged. It’s safe, it’s exercise and usually not to far. For disabled students the Council provides a Taxi at no cost, and there are school buses, both private’s own, for those who don’t want to walk and live to close to don’t qualify for the Free Bus which is paid for by the tax payer for those living a distance away. Hope this helps clear up your question. Remember this is the U.K. we can walk and are not so dependent on the Car 🤓

Then you have your lunch break which lasts around 1hr. After eating your lunch you’ll just hangout with friends outside until afternoon lessons start

    School transport: if you live more than 3 miles from the school you get free transport - either a special school bus/coach or a bus pass to use on public buses. Pupils who don't get free bus have a choice of taking the bus or walking and spending the 'bus money' their parents have given them on sweets and stuff! So if it's not raining, you walk!

    Info from friend: No one wares coats to fancy up the uniform, it’s because after primary school, high schools don’t offer a winter jacket. You’re usually given a choice between a polyester or wool blazer, or a wool sweater with no coat at all, most people go with polyester blazer because wool smells like wet dog and takes forever to dry when it rains, and it rains A LOT, you have to ware this thing all day.
    The blazer itself is actually fairly warm but there’s only two buttons near yours waist that you can fasten leaving most of your torso exposed to the elements, this can switch from wind, to rain, to sun, to hail in a singular day, on an hourly basis. This is on top of it limiting your range of movement particularly as a girl because it makes your skirt ride up.
    Moral of the story:

    Most schools are situated in the middle of a residential area, and it’s just a short walk for the majority of students to get there. Some people get driven by their parents, or some may take a public bus if they live further away.
    We had a morning break for about 15-20 mins when you could hang out with your friends, and then we also had a lunch hour.
    My school did have a cafeteria, but I don’t think I ever set foot inside it! We were allowed to leave the school premises at lunch time, so I usually went home for lunch. Other people might walk to the local shops to buy food.
    It generally wasn’t cool to eat your lunch at school or to hang out in the library!

    Most secondary schools will have a morning break (maybe 20 mins) and a lunch break (an hour or more), so maybe 2-2-4 or 2-3-3 (total of 8 lessons). Lunch break may be staggered. There will usually be a canteen with hot meals, salad bar, sandwiches, about £2.50 for a main meal and vegetables. Chips are only served twice a week and are not regarded as a vegetable.

    We don’t have dedicated school buses as a rule, most would be contract hire from a coach/bus company which is normally arranged by the county council, as for who can catch the bus for free they need to live at least 2 miles away from the school. As far as I’m aware most schools still have a cafeteria but you have the option of bringing your own lunch if it open with COVID is another matter. When I was at school many moons ago we had a 15 minute morning break, 45 minutes lunch break then another 15 minute afternoon break, how their days are structured is likely to be different.

    The UK don't have a school bus like America does. In the UK some high schools will own one or two minibuses seating 9 to 17 people and these are for small outings like for school sports matches with other schools. Outings to move a whole class or more are much rarer and typically when that happens the school will just charter a private bus tour company to provide the relevant number of buses for the day. In my experience these buses are really high quality and much more comfortable than a local bus route bus.
    In regards to transporting kids to and from school if you live within a certain radius you are expected to walk or a parent drives you a lot closer first. Outside of the special radius you can apply for a bus pass where you will be assigned a collection and drop off point that will be in walking distance from your house. This bus service is done under contract with a local bus company with the local council and not by the school directly. These buses are not exclusive for school use and will have a full working day if the company can find them jobs. Though I noticed this last year that some buses would spend the day parked in the schools bus park.
    You better hope you live in the right catchment area for your school or you can't get the bus. I know some kids who had to move a couple of miles to be with their grandparents after their mother died of cancer moving them just slightly out of the catchment area. The father having hung himself when the mother was first diagnosed with cancer years earlier, she was a fighter and hung on for years. The grandmother had a huge bureaucratic fight to get the bus pass even though the collection point was closer to the new house than the old house. Council initially wanted kids who had just lost their mother to also lose their friends by moving to a different school. It was crazy!

      I don’t know any schools which have exclusive buses for transport to and from school, as another comment said unless you mean the mini vans used for driving to events or competitions. Speaking especially for London, everyone is either driven walks, or uses public transport (or a combo) here as far as I know.

    We use public transport buses to get to school (well I did) or if you live close enough you walk to school.
    It looked like those girls lived close enough so they just walked to school. They also looked like they were in year 9 (14 years old) or year 10 (15 years old) of secondary school based on how they looked with all the make up and stuff. Year 11 (16 years old) is the final year.
    In secondary schools we don’t have recess, we have breaks after two of three lessons.
    If they’re playing football that’s because they want to, football isn’t seen as just a small kids game in the uk.
    Phones are limited in lessons so she wouldn’t have been Able to film in a lesson the way you thought/hoped she would have.

    Not all schools have the same rules, mine was quite strict, as it was an all girls catholic grammar school. No makeup, only natural hair colour, some of us used to try our luck, but we’d either get detention or sent out to remove make up or sent home to change our hair. No coats in our classes, no extra accessories and shirts must be tucked in. No phone at all though out the duration of a school day. Lol to be honest phones weren’t really a thing for us when I was at school. Toilets is the place to go if you want to break a few rules. Also no all schools have ties, mine didn’t.

  • @Chloe_P_B

    The reason you don’t see any bright hair colour is because (at my school at least) if you dye your hair something that isn’t natural and can’t wash it out by the next school day then you’ll be put in isolation until the colour is gone
    Also at my school your not allowed any form of jewellery unless it is related to religion and if you wear it they can take it of you and you would have to wait until they decide to return it
    Also you’re not meant to wear coats or jumpers around the school but most people do it anyway
    And practically everyone finds a way to modify the uniform by year 8 (12-13) years old and lots of people in the older years don’t care about uniform anymore and just argue with the teachers to get out of changing it to fit how the school wants the to wear it
    (This is all based on my own experience and how my school works)

    I'm only in my 30s and walking to school was normal in the UK when I was a kid. In general it would take me 20-30 minutes to walk to school and most of the people I knew did the same. Sun, rain or snow/ice didn't make any difference, if you were late you would get a de-merit and repeated lateness resulted in detention. The worst days were when we had cooking class (we had to carry our ingredients) and P.E ( we had to carry our equipment) on the same day as that was quite heavy. No one whined about this as it was normal and I can't see how it did us any harm, quite the contrary, I think it's a good thing. Maybe one reason the UK has started to follow the USA in regards to our rates of childhood obesity is that modern parents drive the kids to school (or the kids get the bus).
    Buses were available when I went to school but only for those who lived too far away or because the student was disabled.

    British school buses are basically just old public buses that aren't used for general public anymore, mine was a green 30 year old monstrosity. Just so you public transport works on a franchise system with with private companies running the busses everywhere outside of London so busses can vary quite a bit around the country.

    Depending on how old they are, they might have had a free period. Don't know if this is all schools, but most of us turned up at school at around half eight then messed around until form (I think you call it home room?) started at quarter to nine. Then a 20 minutes break time after eleven, then a fifty minute lunch break sometime after 1. You can't really have your phone out in lessons, so I doubt she'd video any of them. Only the bits during breaks away from the eyes of teachers.

    so basically in our schools (at least most of them) if we get caught with our phones out at any time we get them confiscated. thats why you dont often see footage from outside the toilets. to clear any confusion we start anywhere from 8;15 to 9:00, then we typically have p1 (an hour) p2, break (most schools vary, so anywhere from 15 minutes to 30 minutes) then p3 and p4,then lunch (from around 30 minutes- 1 hour) then p5 and some schools p6. thats just my school tho, its probably different for most. also we aret typically allowed to hang about in the hallways, nd at my school you get a break time detention if you are hanging about inside, so that may well be the case for them too

    @malsimons 3 роки тому +1

    All schools have school buses. But people are not compelled to take them. Local authorities have a legal obligation to provide transport. In some cases that means they’ll get the student a taxi (for instance if disabled). There are strict rules against using phones in class in most schools. Which as of last month, have been backed by the government itself. Hence why it’s likely that we’re not seeing classes. In terms of breaks. There is normally a 15 min break in the morning (or less) which also allows for people to get to next class. Followed by an hour at lunch.

    We don’t have many school busses in the UK, especially in cities.
    Also, yeah, for some reason teenage girls are always hanging out in the toilets, and there’s time to do that at break (15-25 mins in the morning) and lunch (40 mins to an hour). Depending on the school you might not have many places you can go at lunch or break except outside or to the lunch hall, but usually those aren’t big enough to hang out in and it’s common to not be allowed to eat a packed lunch in there if a private contractor is providing the food.

    The quickest way home was across the school field, across couple small fields and then either onto the road or through the woods, even tho we wernt really allowed the leave that school that way lol.

    School buses in the UK are a funny subject since we don't have actual school buses like the US instead a lot of schools just hire out a set of public or private company buses my school personally uses a company called "Johnson Bros Tours". Also most students in the UK walk to school since most of them are within walking distance the only time people catch the school bus is if the walk exceeds 20-30 mins.

  • @geekygalaxy4307

    In school, you'd have break, which was maybe at 10:00 - 10:30, and then you'd have lunch which was at around 12:30 - 1:00. Depending on what year (grade) you're in, it would change times to stop it from getting too crowded. Most schools have 45 mins for lunch, but my school was failing so they gave us less time for lunch and more time working. (yay...)
    Most people just walk to and from school. Usually, you have to pay for transportation yourself, but if you're on welfare you can get a discount. You can also get cheaper tickets if you're younger. Also, in my city if you're physically disabled you can have a free minibus ride that comes directly to your house
    Every school has a cafeteria/canteen, where you can buy food. Again, if you're struggling financially you'll get free lunches. You can also bring your own lunch if you'd prefer, but school lunches were pretty nice in my old school so I didn't.

    UK and European kids usually either walk, take public buses or bike to schools. There is no dedicated buses. We don't need them. Walking is good especially in winter. It's healthy and keep the bloods pumping. Walking through the woods, it's perfectly safe. It's all about self-awareness.

    if you live too far from school, the school will give you a public bus pass so you can get transport on a daily. some schools in my area ( not mine ) have coaches for students who live far, that’s transport to and from school. you can choose to walk, bike ride, busses or taxis to school. in the uk the schools aren’t usually that far, for me it’s only a 10-15 minute walk through a graveyard. other than that the school offers money for busses if your parents are struggling and you live far, but it’s not a long walk and especially not with friends. walking to school is one of my favourite parts of the day lol
