George Sampson is sitting his mock GCSEs

George Sampson: I can't celebrate Britain's Got Talent win because I have detention

Breakdancing star also has to sit mock exams

Monday, 2 June 2008

George Sampson has been punished by his teachers for taking part in Britain’s Got Talent.

His school in Warrington isn't impressed that he took so much time out for rehearsals and interviews – and has said he has to make up all the lost time in detention!

‘I can’t celebrate my win because I have detention,’ he says. ‘I've been doing breakfast shows and radio shows over the past week and I have been [late for] school by about 10 minutes every day. They clocked up how many minutes I've missed and said it was 81.

‘Now the school has sent a letter home saying I have to do 81 minutes in detention. I never get into trouble, but they won’t let me off this.’

George, 14, also has to sit his mock GCSE music exam today.

‘I'm a bit worried,’ he tells the Daily Star. ‘My teachers have been really supportive and have been texting and calling to congratulate me. I wish they'd let me off the exam, though.

'I may have won, but I can’t get away from school!’
