The joy of school these days

Science questions to be answered,
Lovingly accompanied by an English essay,
But for the main portion of the evening,
You will be completing three sides of Maths revision papers,
Which have nothing to do with real life.

You'll do this by tomorrow,
Or they'll break your legs,
A new punishment,
Just issued to the teachers of England,
By the government of course.

Do this,
Do that,
That's not good enough,
Do it again,
Schools need to teach the teachers how to improve teenagers self-esteem,
They should be taking classes,
Not teaching them.

Only chance at freedom during the day,
Lunch, 45 minutes of idiocy,
With the friends you'll remember when you're eighty,
Then the bell goes,
And calls the kids back into their cells,
Oh the joy of school these days.
