Blood on the Class floor

It's hoped that the inanities of the younger students have worn off by the time they're doing their A-levels. Or at least that the process of sitting (and passing or not passing) GCSEs would filter out the really crazy ones from the Sixth Form.

A couple of days ago, RF arrived to his Spanish A-level lesson quarter of an hour late and proceeded pierce his (previously whole) right earlobe with the earring from his left. Blood, commotion, disruption ensued. Bizarrely, RF was annoyed that the teacher told him off and then still chose to remain in class dabbing at the bloodied table-top with a tissue and holding a makeshift compress to his ear.
