In September I'm moving up to year 10. I'm worried because of two reasons. 1) Because of our options, it's unlikely we'll be in sets/groups with our friends in almost every subjects. 2) Year Nine was amazing! Best School year of my life. Throughout year 8 and 7 I suffered bullying. And now we are getting two new people moved into our Form, because they got kicked out of another because they took the **** out of everyone. I don't want to be bullied again!
Any advice? Especially wanting to be hearing from ex-Year 10s now Year 11s.

When I was in year 10 (I left school this year) I wasn't really in sets with my friends. My friends were in a different side as there was 2 sides ( x and y) I was in x, their were in y. We was still on a course together though, so we were with each other in lessons 5 hours a week. We still talked at break and dinner ect. You'll be fine, just think of where you would meet at break and dinner ect.

Since your not in same sets as your friends, it gives you the chance to make new ones.

I moved schools half way through year 10, and i still have things to catch up on but anyway it's good to be in lessons with people you don't usually hang round with because you can make more friends and also if your with your friends you have a tendency to mess about and you don't want to do that in Year 10.
Goodluck anyway, year 10 goes by so quickly.
I have just left year ten, in my eyes it was great...
All of us that were already friends stayed friends, plus we made a bunch of new friends. That side of things is fine, it's just the beginning of your GCSEs :'(

Year 10 is a doddle. You'll be able to keep in contact with oyur old friends during break and you will, (no maybe) make new friends if you try. The only thing you should be worried about is DEADLINES, make sure you meet them it will make you life so much easier, i didnt and i'm in mess right now, i have half a year to catch up.
Just meet the deadlines, make new friends and hang out with the old ones and you'll walk over this year, beleive me you'll be fine.
I've just finished yr10 and it was alot better than I expected. The thought of GCSEs at the start of the year kinda worried me a bit cause I was expecting loads of work that was hard but it was no harder than the work we done in yr9 and the work load was more or less the same...

Everyone knew each other in my year when I was at school so there was always someone to chat to in a lesson.

If you get the option to do any coursework in year 10, do it. I didn't realise that it was actually serious in year 10 and so had to rush a load/not do some, and hence I will be getting worse marks than I could have got.
About the friends thing, never bothered me as everyone loves me, but I suggest that if you're separated from your immediate group of friends, make some new ones quickly, or you'll be stuck outside for a while.

Year 10 is important so being with your friends could distract you but still I'm sure you will have a few people you know in your lessons maybe not all of them i did but that was dumb luck

You've got nothing to worry about. As long as you get your coursework done, you'll be fine.

year 9 was the bestttttttt!
10 is ok because there isn't really much to worry about during the year, choices are no big deal.
year 11 sucks :/

I've just moved into Year 11 and Year 10 was not a problem. You are in ability groups for English and Maths just like in year 7-9 so chances are you will be with your friends.
The option choices you make are often similar to those of your friends anyway however each class is often filled with at least two people from each form group who take that option; so chances are again that you will be ith somebody you know.
As for the two new entries into your form, they are more than likely on their last warning before being expelled and will probably sit at the back and make as little fuss as possible. Don't worry about them.
It is often the case that, when a door is slammed in your face, a window opens. it seems that you have no friends in your class, there will always be people in the same boat and will be easily availible to talk to. Many people in my classes have made better friends in Year 10 with people they had never even seen before in the mixed groups.

dude dont worry about the whole friends thing because what happens is you make new ones and see the other ones outside of lessons, therefore u have twice the amount of friends :) besides as you get through the year people grow up, dont worry. x
