When I realised I was second on Google for 'QPCS' despite having absolutely no content, I realised I had to finally do something with this page. So here we go:

Oh why oh why did I create this page? First it was embarrassingly blank, then it contained promises for more content after I'd left the school, and now I actually have left I'm still at a loss! Oh well, it's stream of consciousness time I guess...

I attended Queens Park Community School for seven years, including my time in the Sixth Form. In many ways, I guess, it's pretty ordinary: a mixed, non-selective state school with good teachers and bad teachers, disruptive kids who waste their lives and students who achieve the most incredible things. One of its greatest assets is its multiculturalism - I've lost count of how many languages are spoken - but it simply reflects Brent, the most diverse borough in Europe. (That's not hyperbole, I just Googled for "most diverse borough in Europe" and Brent came up first, so it must be true.)

OK, I think it's slipping through, I'm proud of my school. Which is awfully embarrassing to publish on the Internet, so view it as retro loyalty! I did have a very happy time there around some wonderful people, though, and I believe in the school's values. (Apart from the value which concerns banning mobile phones, that's a silly value.) Exclusivity and elitism is all too common when it comes to choosing schools, and parents especially should stop and realise that their kids will do just fine at the local comp.. sorry, the local specialist school in Business and Enterprise. As far as I know, by the way, the school seems to have spent most of that money on new computers. Suits me!

I have left now, though. Done, finished, gone. Promise. Though with two younger sisters still there, I daresay I'll end up visiting for a while yet. And still trying to avoid that one teacher I really don't like, no doubt. Y'know, the one who.. hmm, maybe some other time!
