SUBMITTED STORY
During my year 10 English Language exam, I leaked on my exam chair and went 2 hours sitting and not saying a word, at this time products were hidden away in the cupboards and none were available in the exam venue. At the end of the exam I broke down as I didnt know what to do. My school had locked the girls toilets and we only had one unisex toilet, the girls toilets were destroyed, no locks on the doors, always dirty, sinks falling off dirt spreading around the walls. My school uniform is very period unfriendly as it is made of thin material and is uncomfortable. My period became a big issue for me in school, not being able to focus and the constant fear of leaking and people seeing. A few of my teachers were supportive but not all that made me feel more uncomfortable about my period in school.
