    Ok school, bumped into a few issues

    Okish school. Most teachers were nice, though some were rather strict. Didn't support mental health at all untill i started my diagnosis process, and then it was questionable at most. Really depended on what teachers you had, though most of the mental health team were lovely. Pasta and toast was suprisingly nice, as was the food in the vending machines, though i can't say i liked the rest of the food. Toilets entrance didn't have a door, which i didnt like. So many students. Despite the split breaks to try lessen crowding, it was abaolutely packed at breaks and lunches. You arent allowed to use the toilet unless you have a toilet pass. Some teachers let you go if you really have to, but most would not. Absolute hell if you have mobility issues. Tiny stairs everywhere, not to mention a few big stairs. If you have to avoid stairs then you had to go a very long way, and even then some areas would be unreachable. I had a friend on crutches for a while and she fell down them several times, but still had to go to lessons.
