My phone went off in class...

...in the middle of a math test. Luckily I managed to pretend it wasn't mine.  big_smile

But I don't wanna talk about that too much; I wanna tell you about what happened in French today.

Well, we were doing a worksheet when we heard a *beeepbooo*. We knew it was a mobile phone, and our teacher, I'll call him Mr R for security reasons; was angry. He asked whoever's phone it was to own up.
Now, at our school, we have strict guidelines on phones...

1. You should not take phones to school. You have to pay the chubby woman at reception 20p a minute and you can call home, or whoever you want.
2. If you're caught (you have it in your hand, or it goes off), you get your phone taken off you for 3 days and are sent to the Head of Year. Not a nice experience, I tell you.

Okay, so we're sitting there, waiting for someone to own up. No-one did. We all started getting our phones out, checking they were off or on silent. The teachers know full well that pretty much all of us have phones, but you're not gonna stop 500 kids from bringing them to school. We waited some more, and I tucked my phone at the bottom of my bag.

Mr R had had enough.
"I'll call Mr F down here if no-one admits it. I've checked MY phone and it's not mine for sure. Surely you don't want to punish your friends, hmm?"

Obviously, yes. So Mr F, Deputy Head and bad-behaviour manager came to see us. He told us that we were very bad for a Year 8 Top Set. If no-one came forward, he would SEARCH us, and OUR BAGS! And anyone with a phone would get it taken off them! So, I started panicking. I NEEDED my phone to call home if I would be late home, etc. and I couldn't do without it, so I started ferreting around in my bag, and I managed to stow my phone away in my pencil case. Mr F wouldn't look there. Ha.

Luckily Mr F didn't return to his office with 20-odd phones. This girl in class was acting weird, and eventually, they looked through her texts and saw that it had been sent 10 minutes earlier. Phew. I was safe, and weak with relief. I can't believe I was actually SHAKING, numb with fear. Plus, girls in particular don't want a male teacher rootling through their bags, for reasons you guys won't know.  wink

To top it all off, the girl with the phone started shouting back at Mr F, and is now in iso. Without her phone.


Phew, that was long.

Has this happened to you? Has your phone gone off at a bad time? DISCUSS HERE!!!

Re: My phone went off in class...

I always turn my phone off so that's never happened to me, but once someone's phone did go off and the girl next to me started coughing to hide the sound XD

Once, in English, my friend's phone went off and it was a chipmunk ringtone. Classic.

Yep. England sure does hate us kids. Even bus drivers hate us. One bus driver guy accused me of giving him a forged banknote. And I lost my ticket and an inspector got on and started quizzing me. He thought I hadn't paid, but I had. And they were like police "Where do you live?", "How much did you pay?" etc. So I got off and ran away from them.  big_smile
