Line 43:
* [[Corrupt the Cutie]]: Princess Fatima in ''The Belles of St Trinian's''. Annabel Fritton in the 2007 movie. Pretty much everyone else. It doesn't take long in most cases...
* [[Demonic Possession]]: Annabelle in ''St. Trinian's: The Legend Of Fritton's Gold'' gets possessed by her ancestor Captain Fritton. There is no real point to this scene, other then having the other girls scream, making the Emo do an exorcism, damaging Annabelle's self-esteem, and getting the second half of the clue.
* [[EnfanteEnfant Terrible|Enfantes Terribles]]: And how.
* [[Fake Band]]: [[Girls Aloud]] "play" one in the closing scenes of the 2007 movie.
** Another group, The Banned of St. Trinian's, are featured in the 2009 film. As the DVD reveals, the actresses playing the band actually recorded the vocals for the two songs they're show performing. (A member of Girls Aloud, Sarah Harding, is a lead cast member in the second film, but does not perform with this group.)
Line 51:
* [[Go Among Mad People]]: A staple of the movies is showing how normal people react to being thrown into the school. Usually, they wind up either becoming paranoid or joining in the craziness. In the 2007 film an official at the Ministry of Education is shown to still suffer twitches and tics because of his brief exposure to the school.
* [[Gone Swimming, Clothes Stolen]]: In the 2007 film, the girls band together to effect this trope on new girl Annabelle Fritton as she showers, filming the resulting nekkid antics on hidden cameras and broadcasting it on [[YouTube]].
* [[Handcar Pursuit]]: ''The Great St. Trinian's Train Robbery''
* [[He-Man Woman Hater]]: In the 2009 film, an entire organization exists for hating women. Both Lord and [[Identical Grandson|Sir]] Pomfrey's motivations are solely because of this as well.
* [[Heroic Comedic Sociopath]]: Pretty much the entire student body.
* [[Honest John's Dealership]]: Flash Harry
* [[Jump Scare]]: Played for laughs, but a jump nevertheless, one of these happens in St. Trinian's 2 when Colin Firth's character encounters a possessed Annabelle returning to the school.
