How to Start a Rebel Movement in School

Last Updated: June 15, 2022 Approved

Some people don't like the way organizations are treating them. Many students feel that they need more control over their own school, and so there is a little trend going around to start rebel movements. This is a short guide on how to get your rebel group set up and your rebel movement going as a student.

Steps

1
Make some reflections on what you would like to change about your school. It might help to ask some schoolmates for their opinions. It might be something that you feel your school is missing, does not support or something that should just be changed or scrapped altogether.
2
Make a list containing all of this. Lists are always the best way to get what you want organized.

3
Categorize your list, making subheadings for things like events, rules, holidays and homework.
4
If you are the kind of person who spends a lot of time on their social network (i.e: Facebook/Twitter/Myspace), you should start your rebel movement by making an account solely for it.
5
Provide all true information into your information boxes when creating your account, and make sure to put 'rebellious nature' as one of your personality aspects.
6
Make just one profile picture, something that is very similar to a logo, but not with anybody's face on it - if somebody finds out you are the mastermind behind the rebel movement, you could get into trouble.
7
Start off your first post/tweet by telling everybody who looks at your page what your aims are; changing your school the way its students want it to.
8
Add, Friend or Follow everybody who you know goes to your school (not including teachers or staff members).
9
If anybody asks who you are, do not tell them, just say that you are someone who cares and who wants to bring some change for the better.
10
You will need a closed circle of friends, whom you can trust with your identity, as they will serve to be your rebel team.
11
Along with your 'team', organize events like Halloween, Christmas or thanksgiving parties.
12
You can use these events to gather money for certain projects that might help you change your school the way you want it to.
13
Continue doing things like hosting events and posting propaganda online, and you should soon have a miniature rebellion on your hands!

Question

My school has blocked all sources of music, and I think this is going way too far. They've even blocked being able to search certain things. What can I do? I need music.

Start a petition to bring back music. Get some paper and get everyone to sign it to bring back music. Tell the school it has gone too far and why you need music. Consider the reasons and tell the head teacher. Understand why they took it away and find a way around it.
Question

School is a nightmare, how do I deal with this?

Community Answer

Find good friends that you can at least commiserate with about how terrible school is. Find extracurricular activities you enjoy, or join a sports team. If none of the clubs or activities at your school appeal to you, start your own!
Question

How can I organize a military takeover in my school?

Community Answer

Unfortunately, that's not going to work. Even a military takeover by adults would be quickly squashed by the authorities. There's a lot you can do to change the environment in your school and stand up to a negative culture without getting violent, though, so don't give up!

Warnings

If the wrong people find out that you are behind the rebel movement, your school life could get pretty rough.
