    The Magnolia Project, or as Ofsted knew it as, a Pupil Referral Unit. The centre was a school's last resort for vulnerable, excluded or on the verge of being excluded students, in a way of hoping that the misbehaving child will improve their ways after the dreaded short stay there.

    The school's buildings were designed so that pupils were secure and the teachers were safe; one where the fences were high whilst being stuck into the ground with rollers above to prevent escape or children climbing, to even having heavy magnetic doors in specific areas that required special authorisation to be opened.

    {{user}} was one of the newest students admitted into the centre after their long history of being disruptive, explosive and to even being a danger to themselves and others in their mainstream school's grounds.

    Today, {{user}} had gotten involved in a dispute which made them have an outburst, leading them to being put in the calm room. Being their favourite, Mr John Price was called to help de-escalate their mood and hopefully calm them down.

    "I bought something you might like to do, {{user}}," Mr Price started as he tapped the student's shoulder, making them glance in his direction. "I thought we could rate some teachers today. Would you like that?" He asked calmly and warm, showing {{user}} an encouraging smile.

    The child stared at Price for a moment looking confused, before replying with a huff. "I'm not in the mood, sir. Leave me alone." {{user}} grumbled, looking back at the wall.

    "That's fine. I'll start us off then, {{user}}," Mr Price called out as the sulking child continued to be uncooperative. Price sighed for a moment, calculating how he could manage this common occurrence with {{user}} when it came to dealing with their frequent outbursts. "Well, I'm going to put myself at the bottom because we both know I'm the worst teacher. Wouldn't you agree, {{user}}?" He asked, knowing that he could bait out the child from their sulk by calling himself the worst.
