What's your schools 'key' subject?

[Aiden]

Most schools have like a main subject which they focus on...

like my last school was a science and tech college

they had a big science block which was very modern and cool

My current school focuses on performing arts


1 drama room
2 drama cabins
2 dance studios
3 music rooms
1 music tech room
im sure theres other stuff too

[e5]

My high school was a Sports College but during that time, obvs, we had a massive science block built, although it is still known as a sports college now though.

[Kardan]

My school was a design and technology college, so we had to pick a design and technology subject at GCSE.

[Yawn]

science but im not at skl

[-:Undertaker:-]

Ours was Drama. :rolleyes:

[Kardan]

Oh, and my University is a sports Uni - it's actually the best sports Uni in the country.

[Aiden]

Ours was Drama. :rolleyes:

Why that face? You'd fit loads of roles!

We just took the piss in drama.

But extra money to drama was the last thing our school needed, the other departments (who couldn't afford books, had holes in the floors) absolutely hated them. Our history department used to rip them every lesson. :P

LMFAO!

So did you not take drama then?

My school has two halfs and the teachers do that too each other... it's like:

English
Drama
Dance
PE
Languages
Science
IT

vs

Maths
History
Geography
PD
Business
Health and Social
DT

Err its hard to say

Maths is the biggest department
But Physics has the best facilities, like a new £4m physics (and IT) block which was built a few years ago. The physics department always gets the biggest budget too
Sport is also very big, a number of high profile rugby players came from my school who went on to play for england, we have two cricket coaches who were ex first-class cricketers etc etc. Lots of sport facilities like a swimming pool, squash/tennis courts, like 10 rugby pitches etc

i'd say physics over all

[Samantha]

Ours used to be a Technology College so we had to choose one of these:

Woodwork (which I wanted to take, but girls weren't allowed :rolleyes:).
Food Tech
Product Design
Textiles

Now I'm not too sure.

[j0rd]

My school was sports
Have 8 lads from my year currently playing professional rugby, 3 playing professional football and 1 playing professional cricket

LMFAO!

So did you not take drama then?

Nope, I couldn't stand it. And I resented being made to watch god-awful plays by GCSE drama class at Christmas assembly. :P

[Zelda]

ours is maths and computing, even though we don't even have anyone taking computing in our year and i don't think year 12 has anyone taking it either, and it doesnt offer IT or computing at gcse .... lol and the computer systems are awful over the whole school and barely work and only one IT teacher in the whole school too. the maths department is very big though which i'm glad for. It's more of a maths and science school if i'm honest though, but sports is quite big here too and they seem to like taking money away from the departments that need it while all this extra sports stuff they keep building is completely unnecessary compared to some higher tech science equipment imo especially when half the equipment is really dodgy or borrowed from other schools for the lessons loool.

glad our school is not a technology one or anything though, didnt have to do art or dt or anything at gcse which i'm glad about since i was completely useless at it all

[Jordan]

Mine was a technology college so was made to do a technology subject at GCSE.

[Sharon]

mine was a languages college

[Daltron]

My high school didn't really specialise in anything but it did offer over 50 HSC subjects, one of the highest offerings in the state.

My uni however is probably catered in design towards accounting/finance/actuarial studies students

[Eric]

Nope, high schools here don't do that

[Sloths]

My uni is the top design school in Australasia, my highschool/college didn't really focus on anything in particular it was a crappy school..

[MKR&*42]

Either Sports or Drama I'm not really sureee. It had a theatre which held loads drama shows time and time again, but I know we were quite involved with sports sometimes idk

[Red]

None...seems to be more of an english thing. Mine was a selective grammar for 14-18 yr olds. It wasn't subject orientated.

[Zak]

Ours was Science

[Shar]

Art and music, maths and computing I think

[Cassiieee]

Um, I can't actually honestly remember. I think it was options. (You pick out of cooking/wood work/art/sewing/ICT) Every month we swapped about.

[mrwoooooooo]

my high school chose to be a specialise in humanties, god knows why. so like history, geography and re :|
