I went to college (A-Levels) right opposite Harrow school. We used to make fun of them for their straw hats, and they made fun of us for being poor 😭.
Serves you right lmao
I also went to same college, I actually quite liked seeing the uniformed students in the morning. They seem so distinguished
LMFAOOOOOOO NOO😭
🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Lol I got an ad for Harrow School on this video 🤣
Same
same 😂
LOOOL same
Same hahah
I thought it was part of the intro 😂
Did anyone else get an ad showing a woman talking about Harrow School? 😂😂
Yup
yeah
Aha
Yep
yeah
Listening to his school day u start to realise why private schools tend to beat state schools in exams
I went to a state secondary school then got a scholarship for a boarding sixth form. The private sixth form definitely pushed me more for exams than any other state college or school.
The upper class who can afford these schools also benefit from having stable homes. If you’re impoverished, your home life is likely to be dysfunctional, with addiction and mental illness being higher with poverty. Dealing with those issues at home as a child will massively impact your chances in life. And the wealthy then go on to join the boys club of politics and run the country, where they enact policies which further disenfranchise the poor (see: David Cameron, Boris Johnson, every wanker in the Tory party). Eton and Harrow should be turned into museums and the little darlings put into council estates for a few years to see how they like it.
L Martin the majority of MP’s did not go to a private school so by your own logic the ‘old boys club’ has been elected by the people when they could have elected people from the council estates but a valiant attempt 🙃
@John Smith - Did you read any part of my comment? You are in the vast, vast minority. Look at the numbers. The upper class are grotesquely advantaged.
L Martin I feel quite sorry for you to be honest ... You clearly have a chip on your shoulder and I imagine living with any kind of resentment can’t be nice. I live resentment free and I’m state school educated.
I used to go to St Dom, we used to buy cigarettes for the Harrow boys at a ridiculous mark up and enjoy watching them having to bow and take off their hats whenever a car would let them cross at a zebra crossing.
Harrow boys are posh twats I wanted to go to eton and realised I didn't have enough money so I went to whitgift
@@theboredreaper5902 right cause whitgift school, that's not posh at all...
The Bored Reaper the irony
This is sadder then Twilight. Specially when you know you spent your days being beaten by the London oratory, a school that's free (shock horror)
AlfaAddict Not comparable in sport at all though.
Am I the only one that’s calls it red arse 🤣
Yeah and other way round is red virus
Tannies
In the 90’s in Toledo Ohio we called it Butts up
Red arse n bluebells
I think red arse is a Northern thing
Max seems less snobby than the other two.
I agree i prefer him a lot more than jackmaate
JaackMaate got incredibly weird and boring fast. I used to adore his content, beans and burgers is still one of my fave inside jokes with my bf. But idk his content is bit wank now. Max still has amazing content on his channel.
@@lotussight His CZcams channel really obviously isn’t his passion at all anymore, so idk why he keeps going back to it. His passion is clearly for Happy Hour nowadays.
I think he keeps doing the main so he can do happy hour, it’s his cash cow basically I reckon
@@fergusramage4069 yeah I’ve heard him say that, but surely it can’t be that much of a money earner that he has to force himself to do videos. He’s got a Spotify deal and one of the biggest podcasts in the UK at the end of the day.
Sounds like a pretty harrowing experience
Ba dum tss
u tried
I wish all conversations between classes was like this, we canno help if we are born rich or poor but we can choose to not judge others for it
Watch Americans ruin it lol
Eh, the wealthy should be ashamed.
If only we could abolish class
Still great fun to poke fun at the toffs
@@L_Martin All of the wealthy ? Or just some ? And how so ?
i can't believe i got an advert for harrow on this
How
I went to Cheltenham College, absolute same thing as this but parents lived abroad so got no exe-ats or time away. It really is just like he's described. He kinda understates how fun and enjoyable it is. It's more like living with your mates all the time and you get really close bonds and friendships, it's not really like having no free time or anything. It's just a different way of life, and it was a really good time in my life.
Yeah I really wanted to go to a boarding school when I was young lol and I went to a public school
But no girls?
@@1032999i Hahaha there were 6 boys boarding houses and 6 girls boarding houses. It's still a mixed school.
st edwards is better
I’m from Cheltenham, a few friends went to Cheltenham College and it does sound like such a laugh
did anyone else get an add for his school lol
Yeh 😂
Lmao yeah
Yeah
Yes sir haha
Premium gang? Lmao
We played hockey for school against Harrow we traveled 5 hours for it. We won and they gave us tea(food not the drink), took us around the village and showed us the chapel . Brilliant place absolutely well spoken people. Got talking to a really genuine boy who’s day was a Malaysian businessman and worked abroad and he was asking about my school and comparing. Lowkey was a really good learning experience
We are really not stuck up at all, you just need to get to know us!
Who's the Malaysian guy? What year was it?
it was my mate ibrahim. his dad is an aristocrat in malaysia@@HANTUCOVA
Nice
why am i, an american, watching 3 british guys talk about private school for 12 mins?
You clicked on the vid
Im guessing you sat through 8 films about a certain posh wizard who went to a posh wizard school too? Lol
Im American and Im going there in September!
@@chrislamb382 are you talking abt barry notter
@@victoriaknight1345 were r u going harrow or London cause I’m American and I went to London and I was held at knifepoint
Being matthew fosh's son at harrow was like being james potter's son at hogwarts.
Do u know who Neil back is. The England rugby World Cup winner?
Difference is Harry was just as good as his father in ‘sports’ if not better
This is gonna sound dumb but why do posh people tend to have posh names? Like Rees-Mogg for example and “Fosh” like names that sound very uncommon
@@5uper5kill3rz because they are old money, and in general people with a lot of money have less children
@@Sphagetti__ Absolutely rubbish, Rees-Mogg has 6 children, Boris has around the same. If anything the 'upper class' have more children because they don't have to personally look after them and can afford it.
max seemed really up for a good conversation and to give an interesting insight into what life was like for him then... "hAvE yOu EvEr FoUnD pOrN iN a BuSh?'
Honestly, jack came across as such a prick through out this icl
@@brendonutjita Jack comes across posh himself trying to take the piss out of a posher kid
@@teddyboy9497 he’s from a council estate to be fair to him definitely not posh
Yeah honestly I feel like I relate more to Max and I went to a state school lol
@@5uper5kill3rzthe happy hour guys are absolute dorks
its all very harry potter with his dad being very known
Ciaran O'Brien Fun fact: a scene in Harry Potter was actually filmed at Harrow school
Reminds me of Smeltings!
@@jkmallett2356 do you know which scene?
J R the hogwarts dining hall is filmed in harrow dining hall
meiksm no way really! I love Harry Potter sm
Jack acting like he's from a tower block in south london. Bro you're from Norfolk
Bro where he grew up is a shithole I live near it lol. Like almost tower block in London standard
Countryside Council estates can be worse than London as the people are poorer
London isn’t the only place with rough council estates 😂 Maybe leave the capital one day mate
You think london is the only place with rough areas?
You would love it in Wales then mate, all the Council Estates are lower middle class minimum 🙄
I think the fact that squash was invented at Harrow school makes it the poshest school in the world 😂
great sport 👍
My friend's school's claim to fame was that it 'invented' cricket
Eton invented football
and has had 14 prime minsters go there and the past 7 princes and queen elizbeth the 2nd was the only girl to go there
So I went to a State Boarding School that played Private Schools like Harrow at Rugby.
We were pretty good so 9/10 times we would beat all these posh schools and then go eat their delicious dinner following the match (as they always provided food after if we played on their ground).
I felt bad for these private schools because when they played at our school they would get SOGGY sausages, chips and doughnuts from our canteen.
Imagine losing a rugby match to a state school and then having to eat soggy food afterwards.. xD
Didn’t know state boarding schools existed!
@@livewithintention1625u have to pay for the boarding part
Don’t feel sorry for these people.
gordons?
"Delicious dinner"? Things have changed since catering at Harrow has been centralised, but when I was there the staple diet was 'goulash' or 'stew'. Cartons of dog food were delivered every day, but neither the matron nor the housemaster had a dog. I only wish I was joking.
Lmao people be talking abt ads for harrow and i get ads for depression
Hang in there chief
Same difference tbh
😭😭😂
If I found myself saying things like "people be talking" I would get depressed too.
“What were you expecting me to say “God save England?” This took me outtt 😂😂😂💀
Like Max, I go to a Boarding school, and I can confirm he is like most people there. Yes, while there are a few snobby pricks, most of us are just normal guys who were lucky to be born into wealth.
what school do you go to ?
@@pylot5021 it’s not.
Which area?
Stowe?
I also went to boarding school and no the fuck it isn’t lol. You’re just still living in the bubble mate.
Fun fact for you all: the digital archive company I work for is currently digitising all of Harrows old photographs which are printed onto glass plates ( the traditional way of photography) and it’s my job to scan them in. A lot of the plates I handle haven’t been touched for 50+ years. I get a great insight into the harrovian lifestyle and all of the sports teams etc
Thanks no one cares
That was about as fun as piles 😢
I live in Harrow, go down the hill and it's a completely different place 😂 How tf is Rayners Lane and Harrow school in the same borough
And wealdstone.... madness
I live in wealdstone and can certainly agree lol
I live in harrow and its a shit hole
@@louisr7959 big suprise
I always defended Harrow, but after 2 years in Wealdstone, I finally moved. Depressing and scary in equal measure
glad they had this discussion, the general view of boarding schools is really not accurate so good to see max setting the record straight
the records the only thing straight to do with boarding schools
@@dingdongsanderbob5413 😂
FaZe ChickenConnoisseur What is there to be jealous of?
pk 17 nobody is jealous of boarding school kids in the uk really, they’re the butt of a lot of jokes lol
@@pk-sc8iz no shit we're jealous, we weren't born into opulent wealth or status and haven't had everything handed to us on a plate since day 1
These two interviewers are condescending as fuck.....kudos to max for holding his own. Such class.
He got that class at Harrow
The condescension that you talk about isn't quite there. What is happening is that they're clearly voicing their(and I'm sure many other's) beliefs about the upper class. It's quite fine to be honest. Max shows that some of the beliefs aren't necessarily true.
He’s posh not an alien, when he says Tinchy Strider they look flabbergasted.
I did feel kind of bad for him to be honest they’re slyly taking the piss out of him the whole time
@@maxmaclaren7107 to be fair tho it's hard not to, like I'm friends with a bunch of posh private school people n it's just funny making jokes out of things like that. They are rich privileged white people they are the last people who u should feel bad for
Max Maclaren yeah don’t feel sorry for them they have life easy they can take a few jokes about being posh
@@maxmaclaren7107 If you watch any of his streetsmart videos, you'll see that he does the same thing to the people he talks to so he's probably just taking it as a joke
Went to boarding school and most can take including myself and I’m sure he takes it like nothing having somewhat of a CZcams status. But it’s ridiculously insensitive when you see more timid and nervous people who then get immediately shut down in friendship groups, social situations and general opinions. Despite most of these kids ain’t making these decisions for them with mainly parents sending them to school. It crushes people and have seen many people get into deep dark holes and sometimes death because they are scrutinised for a decision they didn’t make
This guys seems a good laugh and down to earth.
Watch Streetsmart on here. He’s ace x
Idk, something seemed off in this interview. Like Max is just a normal guy who went to a posh school, but Jack and Stevie are acting like he's from another planet lol.
Did you go to private school?
Yeah, private sch is an experience but once you're out of school its really up to the individual to make the most of the opportunities.
It’s amazing seeing someone who has a similar upbringing to me discuss it actually. I left Shrewsbury School last year, which is another Clarendon Commission school (The original nine public schools) and our time at boarding school sounds basically the same. Love this video, was very nice to see someone from a different school discuss almost an identical experience.
I go to Westminster (I'm a girl in Sixth Form), and my dad went there too. Most of these experiences sound similar and i can relate to.
Charterhouse here
Funny thing about Harrow School, Harrow on the Hill where it is based is really nice. Harrow town centre on the other hand which is literally just down the hill 5 mins, is an absolute dump.
100% agree
Mate thats true tbf never even thought about it, When you say harrow high street and harrow on the hill i dont even connect the two
I got a Harrow School ad on this video. As if I can afford that!!! I watch Jaackmate's content FFS! 😅😂
Lol
i went to school near harrow and we used to borrow the private school's sports hall. i once heard one of them ask their friend if they wanted to come over their house and when the friend said yes they said "ok let me just email my mother and she will have a car sent for us". was one of the biggest "oh wow is that what wealthy people are like?" moments of my life, and yes the straw hats they all wear were fun to take the mick out of (shout out red ballon)
They live life on easymode. It's all about money. The more you have the more of life you get to enjoy because you can spend your time doing what brings you happiness instead of working a tedious job to put food on the table.
@@davidgalea6113 Also the ability to aim to achieve something in life without the existential concerns that so many have. So many A list Actors, Writers, Musicians who did not have to worry about homelessness or poverty as they pursued their passions...and thats just the deserving talented ones....then we get onto the Establishment in general which is a cancer on the body of the UK.
How is Jack a) never heard of Harrow and b) seemingly unaware of how boarding schools work c) not know what a straw boater is?
I didn’t know A or C
I am shocked lol looks like they’re mocking it a bit. I am from the Philippines and I know about Harrow, basically your ABCs
He is your typical working class leftist who just dislikes anyone better then him/anyone who he perceives to be from a higher class than him; despite the fact he preaches tolerance and kindness even though he hates people he’s never met and generalises them immensely
i mean.... idk any of them
I live less than 40 minutes away from harrow but I only just found out it exists
Winston Churchill famously said 'the best thing about Harrow is on a clear day you can see Eton' ;)
"pee pee poo" -winston churchill
christ imagine quoting churchill in 2020
pravneeet, he could otherwise be quoting Churchill in German 👀
pravneeet Imagine not quoting Churchill in 2020. Pretty important PM
I swear Churchill said literally everything. There's literally whole books about Churchill quotes
how have they not heard of harrow... even during research before interviewing him... 😳
Just trying to show how "salt-of-the-earth" they are.
He does know 😂
My guy goes “how scummy we are” while still sounding posh
Haha I got an ad from Harrow 😂
I really found this interesting for some reason. It’s cool to hear about someone growing up in a totally different way
It is often only in later life that one can fully understand the advantages this system gives students.
Yup its more so the people they meet and circles that they move in. They end up scratching each other’s backs later on.
It is kind of crazy how class can complete shape a person. I think I and many people I know would flourish in an environment like that, instead I went to an arse school in the West Midlands where everyone just smoked weed, got pregnant and were just proud chavs -
I went school in manchester so is it the same thing in the west midlands then as well
What was so bad about the smoking weed part lmao ?
Gabriel Clarke you can smoke weed if you want, but it’s probably best you don’t do it in school hours :) some of us tryna learn
@bw 1506 near Birmingham- I’d rather not get more specific in CZcams comments lmai
@@jaxsjpg3225 I know don't worry, only messin ahaha.
I remember watching the Horrow documentary on tv as a kid
You should talk about school with somebody that did what I did, multiple international schools in different countries then back home to UK. The differences between them all was really weird but also some odd similarities between them.
Who else got an advert about Harrow School then instantly went to the comments
Me
This is so relatable. I went to the Eton/Harrow of my country and all of these experiences are more or less similar (for both the boys and girls schools).
That synchronised laugh at 3:34 actually gave me chills
I went to an all girls private boarding school and I can confirm that living with 70 girls was an absolute mad house
Agree, am not sure why people think it’s good for their kids but hell its fun!
I don't agree with seperating genders in schools it makes no sense to me.
@@Heatwave9000 I can see how it protects girls from boys who might want to take advantage of them, particularly at a boarding school. Since it doesn't happen a lot the other way round, I don't really get the point of all boys schools.
@@islandbreeze2631 Nah
@@islandbreeze2631 it’s not really about protecting girls, people had the mindset that we should teach girls and boys differently because of things like the way each was able to learn etc. Not sure if now it holds up though. (Went to an all boys primary/middle school)
One of my favourite episodes. The whole time just felt like it was 3 mates having a laugh together.
@alice Rose where can I find the full episode?
James Smith Spotify and Apple Podcasts
@@aliceerosee cheers appreciate it
It’s a good thing that at private school it is very structured and something always occupies you as it means you don’t get home sick or in trouble as much as you would.
Jack really treated him like he was some weird alien haha
He thinks people watching are idiots who need everything explained really simply.
As someone who was privately educated for my teens, it always amuses me to have people quiz me as if I went to school on another planet.
Honestly, other than uniforms and the facilities, it was the same.
Some aspects were more cushy, some aspects were more tribal and rough.
How do you know it was the same? You came out of that school with unfair, undeserved advantages that 90 percent of people in the country are denied.
@@boarbot7829 If you had actually read my comment, you'll see I said "for my teens" - I was publicy educated for 7 years and privately for 6. I was only able to go when my mum got a job there which gave a 50% discount. When I was privately educated, I didn't get to go on holidays abroad bc we couldn't afford it.
Secondly, not a single one of my uni friends were privately educated, so we used to talk about it and compare a lot. They're still my best friends 8 years later.
Thirdly, I come from a working class family on both sides and both of my parents were the only people in their families to stay in school past 16, let alone go to college. I was never allowed to take my privileged education for granted, and all my friends in my hometown went to the local high school.
Finally, what do you mean by "undeserved"? Did the 98% of kids who failed the entrance exam deserve to get in? Does someone with a nicer car than me not deserve it? Does the fact that I never had a phone bought for me in my life by my parents whilst all my public high school friends had iPhones mean they didn't deserve them?
Having seen both sides of the coin, the difference between the two is partly facilities, but overwhelmingly is the character and attitude of the teachers. If you go to private school and you're dumb, they can't change that - what they can do is influencr your cognitive faculties and make you more critical and reasonable.
Using those faculties afforded to me is what makes your comment so laughable:
1. You immediately dived into having a go at me didn't stop to read that I have been through both private and public education (i.e. I actually have a real perspective on both - do you?)
2. You immediately default to the Marxist-Wolffian position that having something better than others means it must be stolen somewhere in the chain of trade and thus is "undeserved". I am pretty frugal and am absolutely certain you have stuff in your posession that is much nicer than mine - so who gets to decide whether you deserve it? You? Unless you stole it, I think you deserve it.
So if I go to a fee-paying school as a child of a plumber and a teacher, at what point does my parents dedicating their lives and sacrificing stuff like going on holiday simply got my education mean that I don't deserve it?
yeah it costs £50k a year so i’d be quizzing you
@@ofwje 16k at mine but 8k bc my mum got a job there to get the discount
it is another planet for some people. the fact you and many other private schoolers are incapable of recognising this really shows the kind of bubble you grew up in. It's ok that you went to a private school, and it's not your fault you grew up in this bubble, but now you are out in the real world, you need to be able to at least acknowledge the privilege you had. Otherwise you embarrass yourself and it's frankly offensive to others who grew up in diabolical poverty, living hand to mouth. And yes, that does happen in this country, and is far more common than whatever you are imagining.
I still can’t get over how different Harrow on the hill and Harrow town centre are, and don’t even get me started on Wealdstone (I remember someone calling Wealdstone Harrow’s unwanted little sibling).
I went to Army Apprentice College Arborfield in 1975. I started fencing because I wasn't good enough at boxing. No local state schools fenced so all our matches were against schools like Harrow and Wellington. After only 6 months coaching by a retired RAF officer I managed to beat an England schoolboy international from Harrow (admittedly I was a year older). Army college was fantastic and a world away from my bog standard state comp.
Seems like a genuine guy to be fair
I lived in Harrow for 2 years and honestly it’s so funny how DIFFERENT the hill is. I lived in South Harrow for a year and it’s literally the bottom on the hill and ☠️☠️☠️ it’s a literal shit hole. There was something funny about seeing the boys walk around in their hats!
Yeah the hill and the rest feel like completely different places
I was expecting Ludovico Einuadi to be on his favourite artists list.
I went to St. Dominic's sixth form college which was right next to harrow school. one of the bus stops used to be outside one of the boarding houses. when it was end of college day and the bus stop filled up with college students, the Harrow boys looked threatened like we gonna rob or attack them lol. Probably because we were mostly ordinary working class peeps and we knew they were rich and posh if there family could afford to send them to an expensive private boarding school. I also remember seeing them having to do this nod acknowledgement thing with their straw hats whenever a teacher passed them whilst walking to their classes
The bus stop was outside Westacre - it was the only time anyone from the school would have ever seen anyone from St Dominicks.
My best friend lives in Harrow so I went there with her one time. She took me around Harrow-on-the-Hill and the school looked so beautiful 😭🤣 they had some amazing views too of London, lowkey looked like Harry Potter but POSHER
Ended up in boarding school as my dad was in the forces... He was only a Sargent, but no senior school where we were posted..... Only got home 3 times a year.... Once a month sounds like heaven.
If memory serves Winchester came first, Eaton was based on the Winchester system. They got rid of the straw boaters as the locals referred to the Winchester college boys as “pebble magnets”.
I love how Fiona is to Jack what Jamie is to Joe Rogan 😍
imagine a guy who dressed up as a pint for the sidemen used to go to harrod
I went to a private school as a kid and I hated it. So even if I could have afforded to send my kid to one of those posh boarding schools, I never would have. As a parent, I find spending time with my child and sharing our memories as a family on a every day basis is more important than anything.
Boarding school, the best years of my life! Went to Windsor Boys School in Hamm Germany, 1976-1980.
i got an advert from harrow school before this ahaha
he aint snobby at all. Unusual for someone to go to a posh school like that !!!
Lovin the podcast so glad max came on
Bruh, schools like that always intrested me, its really fascinating🧐
In Colorado, I just had death threats and harassment, I dont like that I have to worry about the gun crime here.😰
I've already graduated, but I was at school at a very dangerous time when there was a big spike in crime in Aurora.
But I loved that you guys had to wear Italian hats, we couldn't wear any hats because they were 'distracting'🙄
He says he had to wear a pretty ridiculous outfit, but to be brutally honest the only difference between his uniform and mine (lower/middle class secondary school)
Is the straw boater. Shirt, tie, smart trouser, blazer and smart shoes were the norm. A quick Google will reveal the Eton students look like far bigger dorks
Except on Sundays, when we looked like dorks too - except with straw hats instead of top hats. NOBODY ever called them "boaters", because they're not, which I find a bit weird here.
The memories coming back from my time at a poncy boarding college.
"It sounds like hell" excuse me? I would've killed for that education...
our school does a thing where we essentially board for a few weeks and while it was fun, i really can’t imagine having to do that all year for multiple years
We used to call "bums", "ring stings" 😂 I didn't realise there was that many names for it
I live near harrow in London, you can walk through the school because its comprised of a bunch of buildings and a road goes through them so anyone can go inside really
Honestly the thing I hated most about boarding was having to be in uniform every day! Until 6th form, my uniform was a kilt so Mon-Fri full school day, half day Saturday, Chapel on Sunday 🙄🙄🙄
I think they look stupendous with their boater hats !!! I used to have one from school for summer uniform and a felt one for winter with a band of the school colours ... nice ...
I didn’t go to Harrow, but I went to boarding school in the south west, and it was pretty much the same but we wore suits instead of what Harrow wore.
This tells you a lot about British culture, going to Harrow or Eton is basically a free pass to any job you would ever want in the UK, and everyone, but the person who went there hasn't heard of them.
Yes 100%, i study law and on my way to achieving a 1st. A pupil from Eton or Harrow would likely get a job over me even with a lower level degree.
i mean i guess but this applies for many top private schools
@@iflankzttv2981 you say '100%' but it sounds like you HAVE heard of these schools, as I also have (didn't go to either or any 'public' or boarding school). Since the OP is claiming nobody other than those who went there have heard of them, you're not actually fully agreeing with them.
@@iflankzttv2981 the university matters more x
Kind of depends on the job, there’s a move away from hiring exclusively from top schools. These people usually have connections which get them advantages, but I know a lot of companies would rather take a successful state school kid over a public school one.
Ultimately though uni is definitely more important, and experience is even more vital. Posh people tend to have connections to get internships and things though so it’s hard to separate if it’s the school or the advantages.
The fact that this guys ‘council estate’ questions involved games and a ‘tag’ tells me he probably didn’t grow up on a council estate. And nobody on the estate was banging ‘Mr Brightside’ without getting a brick through the window 😂
I recognise max from zac and jay, there is a guy he stereotype in the uk for people who go to boarding schools such as Eton and Harrow (I witnessed this stereotype whilst at uni) but max seems like a really nice guy
I worked at Harrow School for 7 years and they definitely all speak “Uber posh” 🤣🤣🤣
Why did you leave if you don't mind me asking?
@@carolinemcgovern8059 just got a new job elsewhere
@@jayc7968 Hope you are happy in the new job.
@@carolinemcgovern8059 cheers bro
what doe uber posh mean
When I was in year 6 I had a mentor from Harrow school and eventually they let my class have a tour of the school, fun experience and even invited me to their end of year performance.
Saw the hats and was just thinking HARROW
Getting an ad for Harrow before this 😂
I would love it if there was a Harrow underground fight club
Love the council estate questions 😂😂😂
Love how different regions have different names for the same things, we have Cupies instead of Wembley singles, stingers instead of dogs arse and wallie instead of rebounds
wow thats actually pretty cool lol
We had Wembley singles, rebounds aswell but we called it red arse where I grew up down south east
I grew up in kenton, a mile from Wembley and harrow, we called it world Cup lol
Wembley singles, walllie and Red arse
I went to a school in Zimbabwe structured exactly like this 😀
I remember stealing these guys straw hats when we were kids we went harrow high school kids are cruel
Very unlikely. Hats weren't worn off the Hill, outside school, and in the school area you'd have been outnumbered by hundreds.
When everyone got an add for the school and now You feel left out: 👁💧👄💧👁
this is like every boarding school besides the posh uniform
My mum’s maiden name is White and she grew up on a council estate in Hackney, and the people she was friends with just called her chalky, the same for my grandad and her brother and her dads brothers.
although i didn’t go to Harrow I did go to boarding school, Max did a pretty good job of showing that it’s actually pretty much the same as any state school social wise, just with better resources and less students. As he said we’re all just teenagers at the end of the day, just some of us got lucky.
Search up Boarding School Syndrome, boarding school is traumatic for many people. Imagine being 8 years old and none of your parents are near you and you basically have to look after your own emotional, psychological and intellectual being with NO guidance from the people who love you. 😬
You have no idea do you.
One thing I could never understand is as to why "Day Bugs" were treated far better than us "Boarders" where we were treated like scum at school. The Academic Achievement of us Boarders was also dismal where the average achievement was 4 or 5 "O" Levels at Grade C or above but Day Pupils(Bugs) would average 8 -10 "0" Levels at Grade C or above. I scraped 8 as a Boarder(I failed Human Biology twice as I could never understand the layout of the Human Heart in 3D) but luckily for me I got moved to The Annexe Boarding Department where you could at least hear yourself think !
Having been part of Marlborough College, this is so refreshing to hear
so weird I got an ad for Harrow school online right before this 😳
Jacks wearing Don Broco Merch, top tier rate that
I’m American but I have heard of Harrow mostly because Benedict cumberbatch went there and I always see comments under his interviews describing him as “posh”
I live and work near Harrow school. Kids there are really well behaved. Especially if compared to other schools around.
Another interesting fact is that recently just 10 minutes downhill from Harrow there's many homeless camps. Drug use, begging and random acts of violence are commonplace.
