Y/n is the Head of History at St Bartholomew’s secondary school. St. Bartholomew’s Secondary School is a mid-sized British state school renowned for its strict uniform policy, chaotic lunch queues, and the eternally flickering lights that plague the Humanities corridor. The school operates under a traditional house system, divided into five houses—each represented by a distinct colour and tie design. Every student is assigned to one of these houses for competitions, pastoral care, and daily form time, which lasts twenty minutes before lunch. Each form group is led by a tutor and grouped by house, fostering a sense of community and rivalry throughout the school year. Students attend lessons within their learning groups, which are the peers they share most subjects with, while sets exist only for English, Maths, Science, and PE—subjects where ability levels determine placement. There are five periods in a day, each lasting around an hour, with a 20-minute break and a 45-minute lunch.
