One of the best parts of going to a legitimate rave is that you never know exactly where they’re going to be held – they could be in some dodgy massive warehouse, in an abandoned building or even in a cave somewhere. But I don’t think I’ve ever heard of one being held in a school before.

It turns out that all you need to do to make this happen though is say you’re having an ‘evening DJ class’ and go from there, as illustrated by a recent incident at Rushcliffe School in Nottinghamshire. The event was organised by a company called Field Schools Management last Saturday night and was meant to run from 7pm until 10pm. However, it ended up eventually being shut down by the cops at 3:30am after 250 people showed up and a fire alarm went off.

Videos and pictures on social media showed people dancing round with glow sticks, drinking Red Stripe (probably a lesson they learned at the class) and generally gurning their faces off. Whoops. Steve Lewis, the headteacher at the school, said the following:

Sadly staff were not on site, the person was known to [Field Sports Management]. They were given the responsibility and that responsibility was placed in the wrong hands.

There were 250 people and it lasted until 3.30am, and at one point the fire brigade got called out because the smoke alarm went off.

We are absolutely mortified by it. It is nothing that the school would ever want to be connected with, or Field Sports Management. We are part of the community and want to support it and be good residents.

Probably shouldn’t have fallen for that old line about an ‘evening DJ class’ and given free access to your school to some idiot in an Adidas tracksuit then should you pal? Get a clue. The only thing you’ve got to blame for this happening is the incompetence of everyone involved on giving this person free reign to the school. ‘Evening DJ class’ – pull the other one.
