Kingswood Bonus Content - Year 10 Questionnaire

Comments

Yeah, his move did take him out of the main storylines a bit, and with such a large cast some people just don't get a chance to shine, but he's still around and still involved

Matthew Smith

Huh, interesting to see that you consider James to have "rotated out" of main character status

Don't interpret silence as a lack of interest. This is hard work!

They're pretty much completely honest. The aim of the exercise was getting in the characters' heads, they weren't something that would be shared (or even exist) in their world.

Matthew Smith

My one threshold question is: How truthful and reliable are the answers being given by these characters? How much filtering will be going on?

As always, Kingswood is a bit of an 'ideal' situation. I know a lot of schools in the UK (and probably worldwide) don't do enough to prepare their students for the future or encourage their dreams and aspirations, but at Kingswood it's part of their development. The goal isn't to get them exam passes and send them out on their own, it's to give them the knowledge and experience they need to progress into a happy, well-educated and well-adjusted life. :)

The question that made me the most curious should be 7. I wonder how many of the boys could answer that at age 14. Well, maybe education in Kingswood (or UK?) gives kids very good space and opportunities to explore for their future… I could only say that, it does not happen at where I come from. I.e., the education here, even nowadays it's already way better than 30 or 40 years ago when I was that age, still suppress kids' imaginations and ambitions to explore and experiment very much.
