They can’t honestly be paying you £30 to go to school just cos your parents separated?!
Can they?!

You get payed anything from £10 to £30 a week, depending on the income of your family. Seeing as my family are poor bastards I’d be getting around £30 a week! :D

See I imagine it has more to do with a low income than your parents love lives.
Now I understand.
Paid, btw, not PAYED.
I can see this £30 / week is money well spent!

Why would everyone buy cigarettes!?! :mad:
SMOKING IS BAD FOR YOU! :D
What I’m buying is a drum kit, when I save it all up! :D
I’d also spend some money on fitness training and clothes and games and CDs and DVDs…
It’ll be a while before I get this drum kit :rolleyes:

They started that scheme just as I was leaving school. In all fairness out of the 3 people who got it, they all spent it on fags. Plus you have to have perfect attendance to keep getting it, so it was always being taken off them when they spent half the day outside smoking.
And, what, it’s about 75p an hour? I’ve had easier jobs than education that paid ten times that much an hour.

I fucked up all sorts and am still studying at 27 to get a nice piece of paper to get a diploma. admittedly I am Dutch, so things are different here, but (assuming you’re in the UK) Tony Blair won’t stay on forever and make everybody happy with money, money runs out at some stage!
