SCHOOL 1950s STYLE
A few years ago there was a reality TV show about
schools. Thirty school students spent four weeks
at a school during their summer holidays. It wasn't
an ordinary school, it was a school from the 1950s.
Everything at the school was like the 1950's, and at the
end of the four weeks there was an exam from the 1950's
too!

On the first day, the students were excited but nervous.
The teachers were all very strict and they weren't
friendly at all. The students found the lessons hard.
They were bored in the history lesson and they couldn't
do the calculations in the math class without the
calculators.
One student, Holly, was sad for a few days because a
teacher shouted at her, but now she says she prefers the
1950s school! At the end of the four weeks, the students
were happy and they all said that the experience
changed their lives in a positive way.
