[QUOTE="Japes, post: 2268430, member: 277410"] I got away with avoiding the wrath of subject teachers, luckily, as mine often landed in PE and for some reason the PE staff were not at all bothered by my absences as they did know exactly where I was Then, in my O Level years, we managed to get me a settled slot in PE lessons as the other option was missing my O Level Music lesson... which was not a goer as I was working towards doing music at Uni. The only really lasting effect on any other subject was Maths, I missed a key Maths lesson in Algebra, and never quite caught up easily again. But, yeah, cost of reeds for oboes put me off even thinking about oboe, along with an upper lip which did not like the stretch it had to do. I only managed the cost of clarinet reeds because I had a Saturday job from as soon as I could and the bulk of my earnings from that paid for my music and reeds. No Grades 1, 2 or 7 for woodwind instruments then - I did just 3, 5, and 8. But by the time I started teaching instruments in the late 1980s, those grades had appeared for woodwind. [/QUOTE]
