Interviewer: Today in the studio we have Tom Greenwell, who is fifteen years old and who chose to change schools six months ago. Tom, why did you choose to do this?
Tom: Well, to be honest, my old school was very old-fashioned and just wasn’t much fun. The teachers were really strict and traditional and I just didn’t feel like I was learning much. I wasn’t very happy there at all. Anyway, I knew quite a lot about Winterville School because a good friend of mine went there. He was always telling me about all the interesting things they did there. He wanted me to leave my old school and go to Winterville too. In the end, I asked my parents and they agreed. I couldn’t believe it!
Interviewer: So how is life different at Winterville?
Tom: Oh, things are totally different there! First of all, I don’t have to wear a uniform anymore – I love that! The best thing of all, though, is that we can choose what we want to study. If I don’t like History, I don’t have to do it! We can also organise our own timetable each day. So, we can choose to start the day with Maths if we like or Art or Music or Drama or whatever we like! It’s really cool! Also, the atmosphere is much more relaxed. We often have fun with the teachers while they help us with our work, for example … and before we do a written piece of work, we discuss things in pairs or groups. Basically, I find that the teachers at the school always try to make the lessons more interesting. Last week in my Geography lesson, for example, we used an Internet site to learn about rivers. After that, the teacher took us to see a real river to see what happens as it runs down from the hills. These kinds of things make lessons come alive and really help me to learn. Finally, the teachers really listen to the pupils. We have a school meeting twice a week where we talk about things, for example, if pupils are leaving rubbish in the classrooms! We also decide on school rules together so it’s not just the teachers always telling us what to do. Our opinion is important too!
Interviewer: Wow! Is there anything you don’t like about your new school, Tom?
Tom: Errm … well, the only bad thing is my journey to school each day. It takes me an hour and a quarter. The school is in such a nice place though. There are trees all around it and a huge garden. Sometimes we even have lessons outside when the weather is good. My friends at my old school say it’s not worth travelling so far just to go to school, but I disagree. I’m so much happier than I was before and I’m getting much better grades!
Interviewer: Well, I can see why you’re happy there Tom. Thank you very much for coming to talk to us, and good luck for the future.
Tom: Thanks!
