POV first day of year 7 in school 

It's been 18 years since my induction to year 7, and I remember every moment of it! Me and my friends got coffees from the machine and felt so grown up!! We thought the next 5 years was going to be like one big episode of Friends... Little did we know it'd be more like a crossover episode of Breaking Bad and Prison Break! Oh, and I remember the warning about the bells... What they didn't tell us, however, was that half the time, the teacher would be 10 minutes late... It was great fun going "That's an unauthorised absence, Miss, you're well late innit, Oi everyone, Miss is late! DETENTIOOOOOOOON!" The mid noughties truly were the glory days.

This is the PERFECT example of a year 6,into 7 transition day!! FIRST year 7 day,EXACTLY how ALL year 7s get shown around the school on their first day!!

Oh god I remember doing this, i was so mad I wouldn’t get a full holiday 😂 that was ages ago lmao

i remember we were just given a sheet of paper and had to navigate the school ourselves 😭

I don't remember when i started year 7 (considering it was 8 years ago), but i think my year just got thrown in the deep end and had to figure things out ourselves with the help of our crappie maps of the school. My secondary school was trash. We didn’t get a bell to tell us when our classes started or finished and we also didn't get any time between the end and start of lessons if we were really far away from our class or on the completely wrong floor we had to run like hell to our next lesson and hope we didn’t get caught running by the teachers or pray to the lord we got to the class room before our teacher did.

This is even more accurate since i went to year 7 in a british school and im british myself

I go to a secondary school for kids with special needs (I have autism) and I remember my first day in year 7, I remember getting out of the taxi and walking into the school building and I was a bit lost and a teacher took me to my class and I found it easy to make friends due to the fact that some of them like the same stuff that I like (buses, washing machines etc) and luckily I don't need to wear uniform and we don't have detention and we don't have homework either.

I can remember this like it was yesterday but now im in year 9 picking my opinions in February and i wish i was in year 7 again lol

I remember in Year 7 we had peer mentors and other student leaders from Y10 and Y11 wearing differenr coloured ties. I then became among them in Y10. Those were the days lol

They forgot to mention that the older kids will not talk to you and if you talk to them then you "have a crush on them'

This is so true. How do you come up with this absolute pure genius?!?!

wow 3 or 4 yr since i was in yr 7, this makes me remind of yr 7

Well if your late for a lesson at my school you get a stage unless if it was your first 2 weeks

I remember they got rid of them when I was in year 8 so I never even got to enjoy an extra day off at the start of the year

I’m going to year 7 next year in September

I started off my transition day being sorted into forms (got the one nobody else wanted hh); went to our form rooms for our FT to introduce himself to us; for each of us to then introduce ourselves to the person next to us; to then get the seating plan solidified & be given our timetables (still had my disintegrating one in the bottom of my backpack by the time I'd finished) and planners. Afterwards, our FT toured us around the main parts of the school (I distinctly remembering having had to line up in silence and in a straight line along many a wall), followed us having some pretty unmemorable canteen food, and a sending off lecture in the assembly hall. And ofc we had to be prim and proper in our school uniform, without breaking any clothing/ styling rules. Always forgot- for the first couple of weeks or so, teachers were obliged to let us out a few minutes before each bell (even the lunch one) so that new Year 7s finding their way would be able to avoid the worst of the crowd.

I never actually had this :( my orientation was during first and second period

You have/had 5 minutes we were lucky to have 3 minutes and if we were 0.00000001 second late to our lesson we would get an hour after school

Very relatable

I started Y7 in Sep 2023 and thins basically it Beautiful!! 😍

why is this so accurate

for me we just go on the same day as everyone else and then straight to class no tour then the next class then the next class, just regular school day

For me, we had our orientation day at year 6, (IB school) I found it complex, but I got used to it layer on.

You should’ve said it’s detention after 2nd bell 🔔

I started year 7 a few months ago and this is so accurate

I only got 3 mins in lesson change overs. At one point I was the only person in class for 3 mins bc there was such a big hold up in the corridors.

I still got lost and had to get a year eight to bring me to my class after this tour day lmao

Wait in Scotland we have 1 minute to get from class to class U guys are lucky 😂

In the UK do you have to take entrance exams because we had to in Ireland

my first day was like 4 school years ago i am now in year 10

why is this so accurate-

My school doesn’t have a bell 😭

I was so worried about this day… I hated it

I hated the one less day of summer 😦

i skived most of year 7 at the start of the year and if i ended up having to turn up i would say "couldnt find my classroom" which was half true

IS EVERY SCHOOL THE SAME OR SOMETHING.

so relatable

you had five minutes to get to your next lesson?! we have none. you just end up being late unless your teacher lets you out early spoiler alert: they never let us out early

I got my first period on my first day in year 7 🙃

Question what school is that first tennis court picture from?

Bro this was similar to when i did my taster lessons 😂 fact: I am in year 7

Whelp, I'm looking forward to year 7 i guess...

I got put in my dads old school for Year 7 yh and I’m going for my orientation day on the day 4/7/24 And I’m honestly so happy 😁it’s my first Orientation day Ever so Wish me luck on 4/7/24

My building have no letters just a little sign by the doors there’s only Like 5 buildings

The best part 0:46 Worst 0:14

We went with everyone else on a Wednesday and we missed period 1 and 2 then we did 3-7 but period 4 we went by ourselves and was chaos. Nowadays it is not and easy to get to class
