School

Welcome to the school section of iFace. You can read here what other young people with disfigurement think about school - good and bad - and how they deal with difficult situations (check out the forum for loads of great advice on how to beat the bullies). We'd like to hear from you too. Click on the 'add your story' button at the bottom of the green box on the right and send us an email - you can suggest new forum posts and FAQs too.

Note: Unfortunately, Changing Faces is currently unable to continue to provide its discussion forums. We are looking into alternatives to put in place as quickly as possible.

In the meantime, why not check out discussion forums on Facebook?

What's break time like for you?

We really want to know what's going on in schools - and we need your help to find out, so please leave a comment!

break time is ok now.
the first year wasn't that good because i didnt really know anyone and that
but as the years went on i met some friends to hang around with.
i do still get the occasional comments and whispers and so on from younger kids that don't even know me.
its well horrible.
like today, this boy proper laughed at me and stared right at me in my face, he was like leaning across my shoulder to look. that proper made me annoyed and upset the whole of the day.
But in general i dont have any problems at break time.

I've just started high school in september. to be honest, as everyone normally is, i was a bit nervous. although i did know quite a lot of the people in the high school, i knew i was going to get a few stares. but not only breaktime but school itself was FINE!
its march now, and im not a single bit worried about anything. i have had a few stares, and not a SINGLE comment!!
im soooooooooooo happy :D
