Proofread of school paragraph
Hey, I need to learn this minute long paragraph for my Spanish speaking exam. As I have no Spanish speaking friends or access to my teacher, I was wondering if anybody here would be able to proof read it to confirm it makes sense. If it seems a bit weirdly constructed it's because I'm trying to fit in all the tenses we've learnt so try and ignore that. Also, as it is a speaking, I don't care about spelling unless it would ruin the pronunciation. I am male, as well, just in case that information is needed. Thank you.
"Hola, asisto 'King's School Hove' en Inglaterra. El insti es bastante nuevo asi que no tiene muchos installaciones. Tenemos un patio y tres laboratorios pero no hay un campo de fútbol ¡Qúe aburrido! Mi asignituras favouritas es informática dado que es divertido pero bastante útil. En mi insti, tenemos un uniforme escolar, como pueden ver. Todos los demás odian las chaquetas moradas ya que eran muy fea, sin embargo no me importa. Siempre he detestado los examenes puesto que eran difícle pero hemos terminado por el resto del año aparte de mi examen oral de Español que estoy haciendolo ahora. Cuando era pequeña, era muy trabajador y obtenía buenas notas. Sin embargo, reciemente, fallé mis examenes porque estuve perezoso. En el futuro, me gustaría ir al universidad ya que sería interesante entonces trabajaríá bien para mi GCSEs."
It is supposed to mean: Hello, I attend King's School Hove in England. The school is quite new so there aren't many facilities. We have a playground and 3 labs but there isn't a football pitch. How boring! My favorite subject is computing given that it is fun but quite useful. In my school, we have a school uniform, as you can see. Everyone hates the purple blazers given that they are very ugly however, I don't mind. I have always hated exams given that they are difficult but we have finished for the rest of the year, apart from my Spanish speaking, which I am doing now. When I was small, I was very hard-working and got good grades. However, recently, I failed my exams because I was lazy. In the future, I would like to go to university given that it will be interesting so I will work hard for my GCSEs.

Cuando era pequeño, era muy trabajador y obtenía buenas notas. Sin embargo, reciemente, fallé/reprobé (reprobé sounds better in my opinion) mis examenes porque estuve perezoso. En el futuro, me gustaría ir al universidad ya que sería interesante entonces trabajaríá bien para mi GCSEs. I would say: así que trabajaré duro para que mis GCSEs (or examenes) salgan bien.
Welcome to the forum. My Spanish should be good enough to correct this, but I am not a native speaker so will leave it to the many helpful excellent ones here.
Asistir is one of those verbs that is followed by 'a'
This website is good and it has a full list of the prepositions which follow verbs
if you are referring to 'lessons' asignaturas you need son but it looks from your English you made a mistake when you wrote asignaturas. You have failed to make adjectives agree a number of times
You don't seem to have used any present perfect. I assume that you haven't been taught the subjunctive yet.
universidad is feminine.
I hope you did well in your written Spanish test. My goddaughter took [and passed ] hers last year.
I like your enthusiasm and hope you catch up! Perhaps you can play footie on the beach. in the summer.
NB I have not done a full correction. When a kind Spanish speaker provides one do give them a point and choose as best answer.
