making friends at a new school (1 Viewer)

Depends what kind of school

Depends what kind of school

Yep, it really does. I moved schools in year 11 and it was a living hell. Everyone was super competitive, and they all already had their own friend groups so i never ended up making any actual friends, I still talk to the ones from my old school because no one here talks to me. Cant wait to get out of this shithole.

Can't say about others but in my school when a kid transfer, everyone's nice to the kid and approach the kid

It would be easier to make friends if the school accepts a generous number of transfers e.g 15 since most of new kids are in the same boat and just bunch up together which births new friend groups.

Is there some kind of orientation for those who are moving to the school? I reckon that would be your best shot at getting to know people, exchange socials etc so that on the first day you can perhaps locate each other¿

Idk theres no formula to it. Just kinda happens (most of the time).

I'm not sure how many new students my school accepts but yeah there is an orientation the day before school starts - I forgot about that. thank you!

Tbh rank 1 3U >>>> rank 1 4u since one little mistake can throw you back quite a few ranks.
