I think that I have posted this before but I actually witnessed a classmate having an accident in an Engish GCSE exam when I was 15.
She was sqirming and had her hand beteen her legs when all of a sudden we all looked up when we heard this splattering on the floor and then a puddle forming underneath her chair. She had her hand covering face and was crying. She refused to move from her chair for a while but the teacher insisted that she go and and clean herself up. The exam was halted when the schoolkeeper was called to mop the puddle.
I was expected to do well in that exam but only got a C! In those days by the way, we wore green skirts and striped green shirts with white socks.
