About
As well as Mrs Young's general excitement about the future of the school and how dedicated to the good ship BRGS we all ought to be, she does her best to steer her year group through the choppy waters of life.
She is world-famous for pronouncing the word "one" as "wun", "layers" as "lairs", "nicole" as "nikol"
Quite an old fashioned teaching style which largely appears to be based on the idea that teaching only involves dictation. Her lessons are extremely boring and lack interaction. Despite this she does hold extensive knowledge on her subject matter and can convey this well.
She drives a large people carrier, which is quite contradictory to her beliefs on global warming and how we should all try and help the environment.
Her smile is well known, and her office is right in between two of her year's form rooms, which she seems to love.
She is currently stalking 08B. She is their Head of Year for the second year in a row (she is supposed to stay with the same year until they leave though) she has them for Geography third year in a row and PSHE for the first time.
Mrs Young set 08B a homework at the end of Year 8, to make a fossil, over the summer holidays. Jake Sutcliffe was the only person who remembered being told the homework and the only one who did it, so Mrs. Young gave him a merit a real fossil (the real fossil was only about 1cm3).
It is rumoured that when she gets angry at someone, she throws her wig at them, like a frisbee.
Each lesson, she usually starts making something up in her head and tells you to write it down in your book (She goes on for about a page worth of work.) Don't even bother asking her to repeat helself, she will have already forget the last word she said. However, her lectures are based on the content of the textbook, as she sometimes reads from them to aid her.
