Two sixth-formers were arrested after driving their cars down a school corridor for a prank on the last day of term.The 18-year-olds propped open the front doors of Malmesbury comprehensive school in Wiltshire and drove along the corridor while lessons were taking place.
Police were called and the pair were arrested and later cautioned for criminal damage to a pillar, scraping the walls and damaging a door.The students drove down a corridor at Malmesbury comprehensive school in Wiltshire while lessons were taking place. Both pupils have been suspended but will be allowed to sit their A levels later this month.
Headmaster Tim Gilson said: ‘They are not bad lads, either of them, but have just done something really stupid. It is a great shame. I think they are fully aware now of what they have done. Police and firemen were called and it was initially feared the building could have been structurally damaged because they had scraped a central pillar. Officers had to drive the cars out of the building through a fire exit.
What utter utter feckin idiots........I wouldn't let them sit their A levels this year. Make them wait another year and see if they are still capable or in a position to take them then.
This was not an impulsive act and yet they have just been slapped on the wrist. Make them pay for the damage, the time taken up by the emergency services and stand them up in assembly and everyone laugh at them, before never letting them set foot in the school again evil:

We took the Spitfire that stood at the Training Camp gates and hoisted it onto the roof of a hanger for our pass-out celebration.
Got 7 days confined to barracks for that one and the Spitfire was henceforth chained down to its concrete plinth.
For those unaware 7 days CB meant that we had to parade in full dress kit at 0600, be inspected by the (i) The Orderly Corporal, (ii) The Orderly Sergeant and finally by (iii) The Orderly Officer. We were then marched to breakfast, given ten minutes to change into working dress and spent the day performing cleaning tasks in the cookhouse, peeling spuds etc. If they ran out of work we polished dustbins with Brasso, moved coal from one bunker to another, painted the now empty bunker white and shovelled the coal back into it and repainted the newly dirtied one. If there were no more chores we drilled for a couple of hours until the cookhouse needed more washing up done. At 17.30 we had to change back into Dress Uniform and parade at the Guardroom to be inspected by the three previously mentioned at 1800 (when the flag would be lowered). We then had a meal, changed uniforms and worked in the washing up rooms until 9 pm when we had to parade again in full dress kit for inspection. We then had half an hour in which to clean all our kit and be stood to attention, in our PJs, by our beds at 22.00 for "Bed Check". Lights out at 22.15.
I don't think I will ever forget the call "Duty Guard and Defaulters Fall In" and even when one of those defaulters I felt the hair on the neck stand up when the bugler played the "Last Post" as the flag was lowered.
Gruelling work for a week but the look on the CO's face when he saw that Spitfire on the roof was worth every minute of it.
The answer to today's yoof problems? ~ IMHO YES!
