Boarding School of Horrors	comment	Not to be confused with your usual Boarding School trope, the Boarding School of Horrors is a place where your nightmares come true. There are no midnight feasts or jolly hockey sticks here. Presided over by cane-wielding Sadist Teachers, you will be beaten or locked up for the slightest misdemeanor â€” and that's if you're lucky. If summoned to the headmaster's office, don't expect to come out in one piece, if at all. Then there is the matter of your fellow students. At best, you'll have your head flushed down the toilet; at worst, you face years of unspeakable bullying. In a British school, you may be enslaved to the prefects thanks to the "fagging" system. And the Absurdly Powerful Student Council will only add to complications as they promote this form of cruelty as presumably girls or guys they like are sent to be lowly concubines within their ranks and is above the law with the Prefect acting as their muscle as they choose whom to beat up or torture. The food is inedible slop, there is no central heating, and creepy crawlies are everywhere. If you complain or write home to your parents, they won't believe you (assuming your mail even makes it out of the school, that is â€” it's not uncommon for such schools to actively screen their students' outgoing mail). The school might be a Military School, where you'll face the wrath of Drill Sergeant Nasty every day, and be subjected to horrific hazing rituals. In the worst cases, you could be sexually abused or even murdered while staying there. And God help if the school actually is a Reform School â€” an institution for juvenile offenders. Such institutions are basically prisons with schoolrooms. Had (and sadly still has in isolated cases, even though society at large no longer approves of it) some elements of Truth in Television. Boarding schools were not a Victorian innovation, but the institution was embraced as a means of counteracting the softening, emasculating influence of mothers and preparing young men for the harsh rigours of the world of business and Empire. The move to purposefully harsh institutions as a solution to parental mollycoddling took place in the context of the early-mid Victorian love of childhood and doting parenthood, which it was later feared would render the new generation of the better sort of people â€” i.e. the middle and upper classes â€” too soft to maintain Anglo supremacy. Thus, boarding schools were intended to break the attendants to prevent them from becoming 'soft' and/or homosexual. More specifically, they would instill discipline and self-discipline, deference to authority, strict morals, a vague sense of the Christian religion, and teamwork. This was, of course, in addition to all the usual things one expects a public school (a school open to the paying public as opposed to a private school, which was more exclusive) to do. For real-life examples, see also the section on the Strawman U page for "St. Jim Jonestown Academy". The overtly strict atmosphere of the boarding schools produced a proverb When a lower class kid turns bad, he is sent to a borstal; when an upper-class kid turns bad, he is sent to a boarding school. Some boarding schools hardly differed from reform schools (borstals) except on curriculum. Also, there is some Truth in Television with the system of boarding schools set up in the United States, Canada, and Australia for the children of the native peoples, from the late 19th century and well into the late 20th century, with the last of these schools (Marieval Indian Residential School in Canada) closing in 1997. The agencies in charge of these schools forced parents to turn over their children as wards of the government and sent them, often hundreds of miles, away from their families and communities. Their clothing and ornaments were burned on arrival and their hairnote long hair had and still has great significance for Native American people was cut short. A few of these institutions did provide a quality western-style education, or at least taught useful trades or skills, but the main purpose was to "kill the Indian and save the man" â€” forcing these children to accept that their traditional customs and languages are primitive and evil, forbidding them to speak their own languages, and enforcing the rules with cruel punishments. Children died at these schools, and they died running away. Sexual abuse was common. Once they graduated and were deemed "civilized", they didn't fit in with their communities because of the mental conditioning they went through, and couldn't fit in with society at large because they were seen not as human beings, but more as tamed "savages" that could act "civilized". Most of them ended up as menial servants. To this day, the horrors of the residential schools affect their descendants, and several groups exist to help today's Native Americans recover from ancestral pain that has been transmitted to them. With newly appointed Interior Secretary Deb Haaland (Laguna Pueblo)note the first Native American Cabinet secretary in U.S. history at the helm, a Federal Indian Boarding School Initiative has been established to investigate the schools, admit responsibility, and create more services to help descendants. Today, four Native American boarding schoolsnote Haskell Indian Industrial Training School in Kansas, Circle of Nations School (previously Wahpeton Indian School) in North Dakota, and both Riverside Indian School and Bacone College in Oklahoma remain in operation in the U.S. as private institutions, now under tribal control and removed from the cultural assimilation program, while in Canada, the horror of it all re-emerged in the summer of 2021, in a highly-publicized incident when the bodies of 200 children were found at the site of Kamloops Indian Residential School (in the province of British Columbia). In the months to come, other unmarked graves would be found at residential school sites across the country. You are likely to find yourself in one of these places if sent Off to Boarding School by the Card-Carrying Villain, often doubling as a Dustbin School, School for Scheming, or Academy of Evil. Still, count yourself lucky; at least you're not in an Orphanage of Fear and don't have to deal with an Evil Orphanage Lady. If you're unlucky, your summer is only apt to be marginally better â€” but see Summer Campy for that. In the best cases, expect it to overlap with Tough Love. In the worst case, the Orphanage of Fear and the Boarding School of Horrors are one and the same, so good luck till you graduate. A subcategory of this is the Day School of Horrors: same sort of thing, but the kids get to go home at the end of each day; The more common types of this variant tend to be schools run by religious organizations, Catholic schools especially. Not to be confused with an All-Ghouls School, where the pupils and teachers are stereotypical "horror" entities, but are usually quite pleasant. A Sucky School is a downplayed version; it's unlikely to threaten your life, but it is going to give you a terrible experience in other ways. But there are chances you may get to go home for the evenings. The School of Hard Knocks similarly encourages violence against students, but may not always be malevolent. See also Juvenile Hell, which is about young people being committed to youth prisons by the legal system, and which plays out similar to this trope.

The older kids are geased to not tell the new kids anything until it's too late. A lot of them don't want to warn them anyway. The whole school is a training version of their society.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_1360882c	comment	Coates Academy from Gone might count. It starts out as a boarding school for "difficult" kids, which translates into sadists, sociopaths, juvenile delinquents, bullies, and a few decent kids who talked back too often, or whose parents just wanted to get rid of them. It is described as a cold, foreboding place where the bullies rule. Then, things only get worse (for the few decent kids) after some of the kids develop superpowers, the adults all vanish, and the bullies really rule. Eventually, it gets to be unbearable for every character except Drake.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_1463a028	comment	A school of this type was the subject of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit "Hothouse" episode. The school in question was for gifted children, but the teachers and administrators cared more about symbols of success than the students' well-being; no matter how well the students were doing, there was constant pressure on them to do more and be better, and they were made to feel ashamed and like they were failures if they didn't jump through every hoop and then some. Olivia learns that many students are on prescription stimulants so they could focus better and sleep less and that this was something the school encouraged from behind the scenes.

The staff are caring but like most schools of the time ignore bullying between the students. As a result, John quickly becomes targeted by a series of bullies. Co-currently he finds himself having to constantly fight off Kid Miracleman screaming in his ear to let him out. John holds out until the head bully tries to hold him down and assault him. John Maddened Into Misanthropy summons Kid Miracleman who then promptly butchers most of London in a rampage.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_20191a57	comment	Bleak Expectations: St. Bastard's. A late Georgian school for boys with dead dads, mad mums, and a huge wad of inheritance money when they reach eighteen. It's run by a psychotic maniac who enjoys beating students senseless for violating the school's many ludicrous rules, and that's if he's feeling nice (if not, they're just taken outside and shot). Meals are infrequent, since he's too much of a tight-fisted bastard to bother getting food, so students must spend meal times convincingly miming their meals, or they'll be beaten. They're also forced to work in the mines beneath the school, watched over by hussars in case anyone tries to escape. Not that any student ever makes it out alive, because before they actually reach eighteen, they suffer "accidents". And this all played entirely for extremely dark laughs. Antarctic House is even worse.

The school is described as cold during the winter and the girls are forced to spend break outdoors even when it's cold. The food is also always served cold (mostly because it takes half an hour to carry up to the Great Hall from the kitchens). And while there is a Sadist Teacher Miss Hardbroom and a few strict others, the headmistress Miss Cackle is good-natured and friendly. The school's conditions are all in the name of tradition rather than any desire to be cruel. The TV series does also help make the school a little more welcoming.

Although that was mostly a subversion: the school itself was fairly decent (the principal even seemed a fair and friendly man) and the only abuse we see was focused on Bart and Lisa (later only Lisa) because the school made them shoulder the burden of accepting their first female student (giving her their entire cabin to herself while forcing them to double-bunk with a rival troop). Then they end their stay with a Death Course that's getting retired at the end of the year due to silly things like "students dying". Before they had THAT, the school year used to be finished off with a full-out battle royale between the students.

Doom Valley is a school for creating villains, and is quite proud of its reputation as the #2 school in the world. Bullies are allowed to do almost anything they want that doesn't involve murder or causing a fellow student to be sent home due to injuries. Teachers are allowed to murder students, although they usually just give them detention where they could, and sometimes probably will die. Shadow monsters keep students out of the wrong dormitories by eating intruders. Teachers bet on which students will die, be crippled, or transformed and unable to stay at school. The school is a maze and being late for class will get a detention. Eldritch tentacle monsters are a frequent pest and will attack students. And combat class involves live practice dummies, rabid dogs, and a lava field. And this is just for the freshmen, it gets worse as students advance.

That is, until you find out that the place is really a maturing ground for cloned children, who will eventually have all their organs harvested and die very young. You also find out that Hailsham is actually quite nice compared to the schools run by people who approve of the whole scheme instead of reformers who settled for giving the clones normal(ish) childhoods when they realized that they couldn't convince the public to scrap the project.

It helps that we get the sense that the school's better than her situation at home. Then the plot kicks off when Ernessa shows up and takes an interest in the main character's best friend, and vaguely supernatural events start happening, and things really go to hell in a handcart.

They are forbidden to speak their language while there (even when none speak English), forced to do manual labor, harshly punished for breaking any rules (to the point some are killed) and hunted down if any run away. Sadly, it's all Truth in Television.

According to Nui, it's like a prison and those that go in are never allowed out and the only way out is in a body bag. When she finds out Ryuko was to be sent there so she could still go to the same school with her and Satsuki, she was furious.

Their curriculum includes cooking, etiquette, and botany in place of math, science, and history, they are prohibited from leaving the grounds except on specially arranged field trips, the diet includes strange pills full of nanomachines that are used to slowly rewrite their minds, and punishment for acting out involves being sent for impulse control therapy, a procedure that is uncannily similar to a lobotomy.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_468bebb0	comment	Discworld The Fools' Guild School. A thoroughly miserable place where students sleep on hard pallets, are woken at the crack of dawn, and spend hours memorizing ancient jokes that simply aren't funny and being drilled in slapstick routines that are even less so. The irony is amped up by it being next door to the Assassins' Guild, which is a much more cheerful place and lets the students go outside. The downside of the Assassins' Guild is that the number of students tends to be considerably smaller at the end of the year than it was at the beginning due to the student rivalries and the Guild's firm belief in competitive graduation exams. Jingo features 71-Hour-Ahmed, a warrior and Cowboy Cop from Klatch who attended the Assassin's Guild school. He notes that after seven years of an Ankh-Morpork public school, "patronized by the sons of gentlemen", life among the most feared warrior tribe in Klatch is an absolute picnic. Hugglestones, a boarding school for the sons of the very rich designed to turn boys into men... apparently by making them play a lot of violent full-contact sports and only allowing those who survive (either by brute force or just being smart enough to avoid the scrum while still acting like they're involved in the action) to graduate; William de Worde from The Truth is an example of the latter sort of student. Hugglestones is also described as physically resembling a maximum-security prison, with the difference that prison inmates get better treatment. In Mrs Bradshaw's Handbook, Mrs Bradshaw watches the boys getting on the train at the end of term; some in wheelchairs, some on stretchers, and two in coffins. Monstrous Regiment has the Girl's Working School, which cranks this up to Room 101 levels. Three of the main characters were in it at some point, and it shows in different ways. (Unlike most Boarding Schools of Horrors, it's for poor girls; it's something between an Orphanage of Fear and a Magdalene laundry). Lt Blouse went to a less extreme version - he's perfectly happy to eat scubbo (soup made of boiled water and anything remotely edible) with the men, as it's what he got at school. Jackrum later quips that "He went to a school for young gentlemen, so prison will be just like old times."

Boarding School of Horrors / int_6cb2d709	comment	Harry Potter: Though everything isn't perfect there, Hogwarts in most of the Harry Potter books is not an example. It's Harry's favorite place in the world, most of the teachers seem to care about the students and try to teach them, and it's generally portrayed as an Academy of Adventure full of friendship. However, it veers toward this in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, when Dolores Umbridge shows up and gets beloved teachers fired, spies on students, institutes corporal punishment, and generally rules with an iron fist. Hogwarts definitely becomes one in Deathly Hallows when Voldemort takes control through his lackeys, the Carrow siblings. Torture of students becomes a routine punishment, and students are encouraged to hurt each other to maintain order. Neville was apparently attacked and injured for refusing to torture another student. Smeltings Academy, the all-boys Muggle school Dudley goes to and that Uncle Vernon attended in his youth, seems to channel the Victorian schools that originated this trope. The uniform includes a gnarled stick for the students to hit each other with when the teachers are not looking. This is supposedly a great help in preparing the students for the future. This is presumably the case at St. Brutus's Secure Centre for Incurably Criminal Boys, the school that Harry attends in the cover story that Uncle Vernon tells his sister Marge to prevent her from finding out the truth about Harry. At Vernon's prompting, Harry admits to receiving frequent beatings intended to stamp out his deviant behavior. It's unclear if the school actually exists in the narrative, or if Uncle Vernon fabricated it for the story.

He rarely had any friends, he was frequently forgotten there by Mallory, and when he was 13, he was beaten so badly by two bullies, including being dunked in a toilet filled with piss, that he developed pneumonia and had to spend most of freshman year in the hospital. It's shown that from all of the things Archer has endured as a spy, including torture, clinical death and sexual assault, this incident is one of the few that caused legitimate trauma for him, well into present day.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_7aaf9e41	comment	The Batman storyline Gothic reveals that Bruce Wayne spent time in one of these as a child (a British-style school in the U.S.) while he was investigating several murders targeting Gotham's crime bosses. He had simply chalked up some of the more horrific memories of the place as a child's imagination, especially the monstrous, abusive headmaster (who seemingly didn't cast a shadow) and the brutal death of one of his school friends. Even without the headmaster, the school was a bad place even for this trope, as the prefects were psychotic bullies and the teachers sexually harassed their students. It finally reaches its climax when Batman discovers that not only are the killer, Mr. Whisper, and his old headmaster the same person, he's actually a centuries-old former monk who sold his soul to the devil to avoid dying from the plague in 17th-century Vienna, and has spent the years since working on a way to keep the Devil from claiming his soul. Among other things, he's been serial murdering children for years to fuel his magic, Bruce's friend being one of his victims.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_7ecd450f	comment	Dear America: Downplayed a bit in My Heart Is On the Ground, which is set at the Carlisle school, a white-run residential school for Native American children that was intended to essentially strip them of their own cultures and force them to emulate the white people's culture instead. While Nannie does mention some negative aspects — such as how upset she was to have her hair cut short or that it's hard to only speak English — she also speaks of how knowledgeable the teachers are and how eager she is to learn all they have to teach, and many of the individual staff are portrayed as kind and supportive. This earned the book more than a little criticism, given that the real Carlisle school was actually a pretty extreme example of this trope (as were most of the residential schools of this type). Played straigter in the Dear Canada counterpart These Are My Words (which was written by an actual residential school survivor). Though it's set in an era where the worst of the abuses had been toned down a bit, Violet's experience is still of a downright miserable place where she's cut off from her culture, has everything she owns taken away from her, and is basically forbidden from doing anything fun. This in turn causes the students to often take out their frustrations on each other because they have no other outlet, which of course only makes the experience even worse for all of them. And then she learns that for the upcoming school year, rather than school boarding facilities, she and the others will be forced to board in complete strangers' homes. And all of this is legally compulsory, meaning that even if their families are on the kids' side (which Violet's family by and large is), it doesn't matter — they don't get to choose not to send the kids back. There also a few hints of other, even more serious things that happened at said schools in the not-so-distant-past, most notably in the fact that Violet's mother (whose parents were threatened with arrest for trying to keep her out of the school) became pregnant while attending one of these schools and refused to discuss the circumstances of the conception, seemingly implying at least the possibility that it wasn't consensual.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_8aa7c509	comment	St. Olga's Reform School for Wayward Princesses in Star vs. the Forces of Evil. Star is in constant fear of her parents sending her there if they find out she's done something wrong. The Doom Troops that are sent after runaways suggest its reputation is pretty well-deserved. In the aptly-named episode "St. Olga's Reform School for Wayward Princesses", the place turns out to be just as bad as Star imagined, if not worse. The Headmistress, Miss Heinous, is a cruel taskmistress who makes a fortune breaking down her wards and brainwashing them into being bland, obedient Princess Classic types. Marco brings down the institution, but it's become a Teenage Wasteland. It gets worse when it turns out Miss Heinous was also draining the princesses of their emotions not just to brainwash them, but so she could use them to live longer. And then worse again when it turns out that Miss Heinous was raised there by St. Olga herself, a robot who constantly brainwashed her to hide and forget about her cheek marks and half-monster features.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_8dd0bbcc	comment	The Prufrock Preparatory school in The Austere Academy, Book The Fifth of A Series of Unfortunate Events. The buildings are even shaped like gravestones. The school is run by Vice Principal Nero. When the Baudelaire siblings first arrive he informs them about the fine dormitories they have, but that unless students have parental permission, they must sleep on hay in a tin shack (known as the Orphan's Shack). He considers himself to be a genius and thinks that he plays the violin well, but in fact, he is unworthy, stupid, mean, arrogant, obnoxious, annoying, and cannot play the violin well at all. Nonetheless, students must attend his lengthy violin recitals every day, or else they must buy him a large bag of candy and watch him eat it. The Baudelaires are forced to live in the Orphans' Shack which is infested with crabs, fungus drips from the ceiling, and the tin walls are covered in horrible wallpaper (green with pink hearts). They are also regularly bullied by a rude, violent girl named Carmelita Spats and Sunny (a baby) is made to be a secretary for Nero. There's also a rule that if students are late to class (or Sunny is late to work) their hands will be tied behind their backs during meals and they'll have to "lean down at eat their food like a dog". Sunny has her silverware taken away because she must work in the administrative building where students are not allowed. Also if students are late to meals (which are not at specified times) their glasses are taken away and beverages are served in large puddles on the trays.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_8e201bef	comment	In the flash series XIN, the story takes place during a fictional time in America where, in an effort to prevent street gangs and violent delinquent crimes, the punishments of suspension and expulsion have been made illegal in all schools (not just boarding ones). Instead, corporal punishment has been reinstated, and as you may have guessed, it doesn't take long for staff to start abusing these powers. However, due to falling academic standards, along with rigorous school evaluations, a new system needed to be created. This led to the hierarchy system known as the Pillar System, created by the main antagonist. The Pillar System takes advantage of the existing student hierarchy, and gives a select group of students, called monitors, complete power in setting rules and administering punishment to students. This goes about as well as you'd think. It's made worse by the fact that many main characters (including the top monitors) in the series know some insane superhuman fighting techniques (the series is animesque). You also know a system is bad when you find yourself cheering for the delinquents who are trying to expose and break it.

Somewhat justified as Durmstrang makes no secret about how it operates, as their entire motto is to produce truly extraordinary wizards rather than just passable ones, and any student who enrolls will know what they're getting into. It was even worse during the brief period during World War 2/The Grindewald War when Grindewald himself claimed the role of Headmaster after killing the previous one and turning the school into his own headquarters, effectively making the students his hostages.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_a61bda23	comment	While Blackwell Academy in Life Is Strange looks inconspicuous with its accommodating dorms, five-star courses, and impressive reputation, it holds its own fair share of secrets and bad habits that make it a nightmare for some of its students. Because the Prescott family is the number one financial backer of the school, the clearly unstable Nathan Prescott is able to get away with pretty much anything. The principal bends over backwards to appease the Prescotts, accusing Max of trying to slander Nathan Prescott should she tell him about Nathan carrying a gun with intent to shoot Chloe with it. A drug-dealing felon sells drugs to its students in the school parking lot with the authorities none the wiser (no doubt due to Nathan's involvement). Its one security guard David is an overly paranoid veteran with PTSD who always antagonizes the wrong people (usually students who are being victimized by the real criminals) and wants to set up security cameras all over the school to the point of Sinister Surveillance â€” made all the worse when it turns out his paranoia is not unfounded. The groundskeeper is a complete weirdo riddled with a mental disorder (or disorders). The school's most popular students in the Vortex Club are all rich, elitist snobs that frequently take advantage of their status to bend the rules (like the use of drugs and alcohol in their parties) and gang up on innocent students, driving Kate to commit suicide (should the player fail in talking her down, that is). Its photography teacher Mark Jefferson is a Serial Killer that manipulates (and eventually kills) Nathan, tries to subtly push Kate into committing suicide, and is responsible for Rachel's death and disappearance.

Hugglestones is also described as physically resembling a maximum-security prison, with the difference that prison inmates get better treatment.

According to the Memory Vault "Gloria's Cruel Training", the headmistress whipped the girls at every opportunity, up to and including when they were performing onstage. Of course, these are the skewed memories of a neglected little girl who'd essentially been abandoned at the school by her awful Stage Mom who was more interested in her own career and her boyfriend than doing any parenting, so it's debatable just how accurate those memories are.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_ac04dbad	comment	Played straigter in the Dear Canada counterpart These Are My Words (which was written by an actual residential school survivor). Though it's set in an era where the worst of the abuses had been toned down a bit, Violet's experience is still of a downright miserable place where she's cut off from her culture, has everything she owns taken away from her, and is basically forbidden from doing anything fun. This in turn causes the students to often take out their frustrations on each other because they have no other outlet, which of course only makes the experience even worse for all of them. And then she learns that for the upcoming school year, rather than school boarding facilities, she and the others will be forced to board in complete strangers' homes. And all of this is legally compulsory, meaning that even if their families are on the kids' side (which Violet's family by and large is), it doesn't matter — they don't get to choose not to send the kids back. There also a few hints of other, even more serious things that happened at said schools in the not-so-distant-past, most notably in the fact that Violet's mother (whose parents were threatened with arrest for trying to keep her out of the school) became pregnant while attending one of these schools and refused to discuss the circumstances of the conception, seemingly implying at least the possibility that it wasn't consensual.

Uniquely, A Christmas Carol's horror is on a more abstract, intellectual level: at Scrooge's school, his teachers strove to pound out any and all glimmers of imagination and fantasy and replace them with cold, hard, facts. (This is also in Dickens' Hard Times). Said teachers are not presented as out-and-out villains (indeed, we never see them as characters in their own right), but as practitioners of then-accepted teaching standards. The Ghost of Christmas Past effectively punctures Scrooge's Nostalgia Filter over his school days and forces him to confront what it really did.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_c9777ec1	comment	Night Gallery: "The Academy" features one of these, as it's revealed the students never graduate, and that it's actually a prison in everything but name. Some of the students are actual former underage criminals, while others are implied to just be "disappointments" who were abandoned by their parents at the school and will likely spend the rest of their lives working on an education they'll never use. The main character decides that this is the perfect place for his own difficult son at the end.

This lead to the creation of Team Star, a group made up of bullying victims who decided to fight back and managed to intimidate the bullies so bad that they chose to drop out of school. The whole thing was about to turn into such a PR disaster that all the records of the bullies that dropped out were gotten rid of, the whole thing was swept under the rug and the whole teaching staff quit out of shame, while Team Star became a band of delinquents about to be expelled due to constant truancy and unjustly mistaken as being bullies themselves. Current academy principal, Director Clavel, joins the main character, in (very bad) disguise, in their quest to disband Team Star in order to understand why they became a band of delinquents and try to convince them to return to class.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_d4caf593	comment	Bully takes place in one of these - Bullworth Academy. It starts out miserable and ends up just really sucky. Cliques run the school, classism runs rampant, the prefects are thuggish and violent, and physical violence is the only way to solve your problems. About the only thing it doesn't have is corporal punishment, since the game is set in present day, and physical abuse of the students would lead to a PR nightmare. Not that the resident Sadist Prefects and Dean Bitterman don't have other ways of making you miserable. Unusual for this trope though, quite a few teachers are very nice, most notably the art teacher Miss Philips and the English teacher Mr. Galloway.

We're never shown if the schools are bad, until Operation F.U.T.U.R.E. where they send him (most likely accidentally) to a boarding school for girls, where the principal has developed a weapon that turns boys into girls and tries to forcibly turn Numbuh 4 into one. Oh, and the academy itself doubles as a Humongous Mecha. The second part of the plot begins when the principal succeeds and leads to a Bad Future.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_d7c4626a	comment	The Sandman (1989) features a school like this in a side story in Season of Mists. It was quite a normal Boarding School in modern days, but since Hell had just been emptied and the dead came back to Earth during holidays when there was just one living boy present with a skeleton staff because he couldn't go to his absent father, all the people who died in relation to the place somehow returned there and made it into a Boarding School Of Horrors. The devil-worshiping bullies had attended the place just before World War I, at the time when the place had apparently fit the trope.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_d966b18e	comment	In Otherland, Felix Jongleur, evil mastermind of the Grail Brotherhood, grew up in the World War I era and was sent to Cranleigh, a British boarding school that he remembers as a place of abject misery and torture, not the least of which because he is French. Even nearly two hundred years later (yes, he is that old), these memories give him Past Experience Nightmares. Interestingly, they also cause him to pick Paul Jonas as his Opposite-Sex Clone "daughter's" tutor because he went to the same school, and this forms a minor plot point late in the story.

Boarding School of Horrors / int_d99a9722	comment	Our Darker Purpose takes place in what may be the worst boarding school in video game history: a supernatural death-fest mega-prison, where kids are constantly killed/tortured/whatever by intentionally poor-designed school practices, sadistic (and superhuman) school cliques, supernatural occurrences stemming from poorly maintained areas and items, and a general lack of hope from being trapped in a magic prison surrounded by wastelands with no idea of who they are or why they deserve to be here. All while the headmasters laugh and snark at the many deaths of the protagonist. Towards the end, it's revealed that the boarding school is one big Mental World of a famous (and Joker-like) criminal mastermind, whose psychopathic tendencies originate from his own traumatizing experiences at his orphanage school, the worst of which came from the other kids, with the main character as the worst of the lot; a shy little girl who liked to throw lit matches at shy little boys For the Evulz. The kids in his world represent his cruelty and ingenuity; they are used for his infamous wacky heists and then terminated to prevent them from taking control and driving him insane. Cordy was so important to him that he needed to recreate and kill her (and her two former friends Goneril and Regan) hundreds of times, but once he's injected with Psycho Serum during a battle with his archnemesis, Cordy slowly gains the experience needed to fight back. And she's worse than anything else in the school.

However, it's ultimately a subversion: the teaching staff, particularly the Headmistress, do genuinely care about the girls, and while they're entirely dysfunctional, it's made plain that this is because of their upbringing (the majority of them were sent to boarding school so their parents didn't have to deal with them, and the older ones are bitterly aware of it).

Given that it was based on Tranquility Bay, a "Teen Treatment" facility in Jamaica for troubled American teens that was infamous for the horrendous treatment of the kids sent there and the deaths that occurred, it's understandable.

And then there's the REALLY horrible part: at least four kids with a huge inheritance were duped into giving their money to the director and then murdered, with a fifth noticing in time what was happening and running away and replaced by a lookalike who signed off the money and was murdered. As one of the victims of the very bad part (actually the one who successfully escaped) was Eva's only friend during her stay there, Miss Luger was tracked down and slain as soon as Eva found out about it.

Although it is presented in a pleasant way past the first 10 minutes, it is no wonder the Minister for Education wants it closed. Among the mischief shown on screen: a girl is dragged after a tractor by a fellow student, another is dropped in a staircase head first, a third one is broadcast live on YouTube while running naked in the corridors, the teachers are drunk, the first years play with dynamite, and the students make and sell vodka in their science lab. Even the original St. Trinian's films and the Ronald Searle cartoons were like this, 1950s style.
