The new head got rid of the bells! What?
I like her for the most part, she’s got a sense of humor, is nice, dedicated to the school, blah, blah, blah all that fluffy stuff… but honestly! The bells?
She said it’s because beyond school we don’t have bells for anything which is, yeah, kind of the point. Schools in their very definition are bells. Look at all the school poetry you see around! Bells! And we do too have bells for things beyond school! Alarm clocks! Watch alarms, PDAs, beepers and all that bollocks. They chaperon our lives! She says it’s now our responsibility to check the time but honestly! It’s confoundedly irritating, I’m not 1oo% sure why. It just is.
