I am an intelligent, successful woman.

I'm a good teacher, and today is going
to go smoothly.

Morning.

Give me half an hour, and then we can
drive in together.

I can't wait that long.

I've got some paperwork to catch up on.

You want to jump in the shower?

I'll see you at work then, yeah?

Yeah.

Kim. Max, listen, if you've got anything
to say, just tell me in the management

meeting, all right? Let's try and keep
this professional, OK?

When's your next party?

Why don't you take your time and get
back to me, yeah?

Check out Robwell's ugly mug.

Can I see that, please?

Don't worry, miss. It's not like
anyone's seen it already.

Yeah, it's not like it's on half the
mobiles in Rochdale.

Oh, what a space cadet.

Morning.

Good weekend, everyone.

Yeah, not bad, you know.

Shall we start?

As I'm sure you're all aware, Mr Walker
from the LEA is coming in today to

assess Helen Hopewell's performance.

Yeah, since when did we need an outside
adjudicator to inspect our own NQTs?

Well, I think it's fairer to get an
impartial opinion.

Meaning you two don't see eye to eye on
the subject?

I would like Helen to pull this off as
much as anyone else, but...

You know, with the party debacle and all
her other disasters, I've got serious

doubts.

How do you rate Alan's performance, Max?

I think that she's got potential.

Yes. But as we have all seen this term,
that potential hasn't come to fruition,

has it? Look, isn't the point of getting
an outside inspector so that he can

judge whether she's up to the job or
not?

You know, maybe none of us are objective
enough to be able to judge the people

we work with every day.

Is there any other business to discuss,
or should we wrap it up? No, I've got

something. The end of term's coming up.
I thought it might be nice to celebrate.

You know, show just how far the school's
come since the merger.

Sounds good.

Yes,

I think it's a great idea, Kim.

Leave it to me.

So we're finished?

Well, great meeting, everyone.

I can't wait for the next one.

Hey, I've got a bone to pick with you,
young lady.

Why, what have I done? Next time you
decide to have a wild party, I would

to be invited, even if it is for the
under -15s.

If I had helped all that, I'd be
forgotten.

Well, that's the thing with modern
technology.

Nothing's ever forgotten.

Hey, don't worry.

I'm sure having the authority and common
sense of a traumatised dormouse won't

impact negatively on your LEA review.

Excuse me.

Another one bites the dust.

It's just an inspection. We've all had
them.

But we can teach our way out of a paper
bag.

I've seen Rottweilers with less bite
than the three of you in there this

morning. It was nothing.

Nothing. Right, that's why you
practically ran out of the room.

Chris.

I told Kim.

Judging by the arctic conditions we
endured earlier, I'm assuming she didn't

take it too well.

No, she didn't. Well, she as good as
accused me of lying, and before I knew

Max was... Max was what?

Um... Fine. If you won't tell me, I'll
go and ask him. I really don't want to

make a big deal out of this. I won't
overreact.

Max came round.

He came to your house?

And we had words, and... Well, he might
have, you know, he might have pushed me

a bit. He pushed you?

I don't believe this.

I mean, I knew that Max had a temper,
but... Are you OK?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm a bit shaken up. Don't really want
to be in a room alone with him, but I'm

fine. No, well, you won't be.

Not till I've put him straight about a
few things anyway.

No, no, no, I really need to deal with
this myself, Chris.

You know, we've got a school tour on
here. The last thing we need is you and

at Loggerheads. But, Rachel, he
shouldn't be coming round to your house.

you for the offer, but no.

Don't let me put rank on you.

Here we go.

An inspector calls.

Rest of them?

Who?

Can't remember the last time I saw you
without your year 10 cheer squad. Yeah,

well, maybe I'm sick of hanging around
with them. They're just kids.

I know.

How come it took you so long to realise
that? All right, why are you being so

moody?

It's because you don't want to hang
around with them anymore.

Doesn't mean you can pick up where you
left off with me.

Helen.

Mr Walker from 88.

You must be with Hopewell.

Would you like to wait in my office?

Yes, of course. Yeah? OK.

Oh, Mr Davis, would you mind leading the
way to my office? Yes, of course. Thank

you. Thank you. I'll be right behind.

Sorry, it's just... Well, he came over
and I didn't know what to say.

Hello. It'd be a good start, wouldn't
it?

You're not doing yourself any favours
getting on a date like this.

Why don't you go and get a cup of tea
from the staff room? Try and calm down a

bit, you know? Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, um... Okay, thanks.

Thanks, Rachel. It's all right.

Miss Hopewell looked like she was going
to puke on her shirt then.

Yeah, it must be dead important.

What do you think?

Hot off the press, making this a
priority.

Yeah, it's a good idea.

It used to be a tradition at John
Foster's. No reason why it shouldn't

here, too.

Nope. This was the sort of thing you
were talking about, yeah? Yes.

Yes, it's the kind of thing.

Oh, you're moving into pastoral care,
are you, Max?

You're running this place single
-handed.

It's all Kim's idea.

A good way for the kids to let off
steam.

Chris, you used to help out with the
show at John Foster's, didn't you? Yeah,

but I've got a lot on my plate at the
minute.

I don't think I'll have time to help.

Oh, don't worry, Max, because, you know,
I can do it if you want a hand.

Excellent, thank you.

The auditions are this afternoon.

I need some judges to separate the wheat
from the chaff.

Well, it's supposed to be fun.

There's no reason why we can't keep the
standards high. Any other volunteers?

Not like you to take an interest in
extracurricular activities, Max.

I wouldn't say that.

Sorry, Grantley, have you got something
to say there?

All right, everybody, listen up when I'm
going to say this one.

Clearly, you've all been informed about
me and Max.

Cheers for that, by the way, Steph. Hey,
they didn't all hear it from me.

Well, just so that we're all reading
from the same page, you can stop your

gossiping.

Because it's over.

Me and Max are no longer together.

So why don't you all stop behaving like
kids and get back to being teachers?

Ooh, someone woke up on the wrong side
of no one this morning.

Shut up, Grimley.

Thanks for volunteering.

You and Ruby are doing the auditions.

Kim, I'm so sorry.

There's nothing worse than gossip,
especially when it's not the whole

Yeah, and you're lucky that I didn't
tell them the whole story. If it

be your reputation, much good everyone
knowing that you're still married, would

it?

Sounded pretty definite in there.

About us being over.

Max, don't look so down in the mouth
about it.

I mean, it's not like you're single, is
it?

Hi, Miss Hopewell.

Just said hello. Didn't mean to scare
you.

Can you go, please, Amy? I'm busy.

Who was that guy you were talking to
earlier, Miss?

Was he here to inspect the school or
something?

Not the school, no.

Would he be here to inspect you?

You nervous?

I would be.

Don't worry about it, though.

You'll be all right.

As long as no one starts acting up or
anything. Well, if only wishing made it

so.

Do you want me to tell everyone not to
mess about?

What? I could, you know. They'd listen
to me.

I don't think so, Emily.

Oh, come on, miss.

It's not like anyone would know.

It's only for one day.

Don't see what the harm is.

And what do you get out of this?

50 quid should be enough.

Oh, you could, um... You can... You can
really make the whole class behave.

I've only got 20 quid in me.

Just lucky I like you.

What's your talent then?

I'm not enough, don't count.

Take it seriously, why don't you? If
you're so clever, why don't you sign up?

No problem.

If anyone in the school's got talent,
it's us. Being repellent for the

sex isn't a talent.

Cal.

Don't worry about her.

Oh, for heaven's sake, there must be 50
names here.

It's the other time, sir, and we don't
expect any special treatment.

Yeah, I mean, we know you can spot
talent when you see it.

Oh.

I've just come to wish you luck with the
inspector.

Just a formality.

No biggie. I know it might seem like
I've been distracted lately, but I am

head of department, so if there's
anything you ever need... Tom, relax.

Mr Walker seems like a nice enough chap.

Today's going to be a breeze.

Trust me.

The merger must have really changed the
landscape round here. New pupils, new

teachers. I'd like to think Waterloo
Road can handle anything that's thrown

way. Still, it can't have been easy.

Two schools under one roof.

Yeah, but we're one school now.

We seem to be doing OK, sir.

But you still felt the need to bring in
an impartial inspector to assess Miss

Hopewell's performance.

It's left here.

Here, keep your lot quiet, yeah? For
what?

This is easy money, right? Don't wreck
it.

Quietly, guys, please.

Hopewell must be so tested.

You two,

shut up.

Some of them are trying to learn here.

Glad to see you're all ready to work.

Let's get down to it, shall we?

Today, I want to talk a little bit about
the different ways in which we use

language. Now, I don't just mean
speaking or reading.

What I mean is what we intend to do to
other people using the tool of language.

OK, hello.

Carry on, Miss Hooper.

Don't mind me.

Er, since when can anyone just wander in
it?

Amy, turn to the front, please. Mr
Walker's here to keep an eye on me, not

Yes, Miss Hopewell.

Persuasive language. How's it used?

Anyone?

Yes, Mbuka Kelly.

To change someone's opinion.

Excellent. Yeah, well done.

This poem

is A Poison Tree.

I was angry with my foe, I told it not.

Night and morning with my peers, and I
stunned it with a smile.

Well,

if Miss Hopewell's anything to go by,
you've got yourself an extremely good

school here. Well, I'm glad you think
so. Of course, I never had any doubt. I

did handpick Helen myself.

Yes, she was in control, calm, seemed to
relate well, articulate well. Sounds

like future head of department material
to me.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Still credit where credit's due.

Would you like to break the good news to
Helen, or shall I?

Oh, my God, I failed, didn't I?

You did really well, Helen.

Aren't you a bit old for video games?

No, it's for Josh, not me.

Things aren't too good at home.

He needs something to put a smile on his
face.

You know, me and my Maxine, whenever she
was in a mood or one of us was a bit

down, we'd curl up on the sofa with a
big bar of chocolate and have a good old

moment. Somehow I don't think me and
Josh curled up on the sofa plaiting each

other's hair is going to be any good to
either of us.

Why don't you do boys' things with him,
eh?

Kick a football about, make mud pies or
whatever.

It's not what you do, it's the spending
time with him that's important.

They're kids, they'll never admit it,
but often that's all they want.

I passed.

Well done. God, I am so relieved.

Check which way the water's running down
the plug hole, the world has upended

itself. I passed! Oh, someone's happy.

I've just got to go check on my next
class.

Well, it's a bad time. We started seeing
why everyone at John Foster's was so

mad about her.

Well, see, I'm not sure they were.

I thought she was a bit of a star at the
last place.

I'm going to take my coffee and walk
away from that one.

Hey, come on.

I mean, you said yourself, I'm new at
this head of department thing. If you

something about Helen, it might help me
to help her.

All I just know that the head of
department at John Foster's didn't

her. Wouldn't have implied a tomato tea.

Well, maybe Max saw something in her
that he didn't.

Max Tyler has always been very
supportive of his staff.

That's just the way he does things.

Yeah, I'm sure that's it.

Rose.

Hey.

You couldn't do us a favour, could you?

Make us up two packed lunches for later.

Oh, you're too good to queue with the
rest of them, are you?

I've got a field trip planned, just me
and Josh.

How does cheese not pickle grab you?

You start.

And you're not going to tell me where
you're going?

An old Clarkson family haunt.

Hey, May.

But you really shouldn't be in here at
bright time.

Just came to see if you were pleased
with how the inspection went.

Yeah.

Yeah, a little arrangement seemed to
work well, thank you.

But you really should be going. 50 quid
a week and you won't get any trouble off

anyone, ever.

No.

We agreed that this was a one -off.
Doesn't have to be.

My mum's dead tight and, well, the
girl's got to look good, hasn't she?

Amy, I can't give you any more money.

Miss, you need me.

You pass one inspection, so what? You
need help on a daily basis. Think about

it. Every day, kids running wild, no one
learning anything.

Mason on your back the whole time. Do
you really think no one's going to

It's not going to be like that anymore.

There are people in this school who
believe in me, and I'm not going to let

down. Miss, don't be daft. Why don't you
just hand it over? Why are you making

such a big deal about it? Amy, I said
no, and I meant no.

Guys, straight to your desk.

Please settle down.

Sam, get any more money up her well
then, or what?

Well, there's no point in not telling
us.

She won't keep paying if we don't keep
quiet.

Why don't you just tell her, Mamie?

She got nothing.

Hope I won't give her any.

She's not going to get away with it.

Oh, yeah, and what are you going to do?
Well, yeah, so much for being tough,

Amy. You might just have to get a paper
on like the rest of us.

Take the following Lindsay round there.

At least she gets stuff done.

I'm going to get her well for this.

Why can't you just leave it? We're going
to teach her not to mess with us.

Amy, no.

What do you mean, no?

I don't want to, but we're a gang, yeah?

Well, maybe I don't want to be anymore.

Yes?

Miss Mason?

Amy, yeah, come in.

How can I help you?

There's something I need to tell you.

It's about Miss Hopewell.

You may as well give up everyone.

Because the stars of the show are in the
building.

What in the... Josh, I need to borrow
you.

Catch up on the set, yeah?

You're going to need these.

I hope you're planning on auditioning
after doing all the hard work.

Um, Mr. Budgen said we won't have to
audition.

Said if we helped out with the judging,
then we'd get a free pass.

Did he?

Mr. Budgen, could you come here a
minute, please?

Problem, is there?

Mr. Tyler asked us to judge the
auditions, not six formers.

It's called delegation.

And it's also called me eating my lunch
in peace.

Nice try. I am afraid that we're going
to be judging the auditions. It's on Mr.

Tyler's request.

But I've been practising with him and
Carol all morning.

Let us not disappoint the little
children, Miss Fry.

You ought to be licking my boots for
this. No, because when I say I'm going

do something, I do it.

Well, can't all four of us be judges?

Oh, yes, fine.

That includes you, so sit down.

Hey. Oh, she's gone mad.

Let me guess.

Amy. She always has to take things too
far. Why can't she just leave it alone?

I don't know what you're going on about.

Well, this morning, right, Amy had a
fight. Don't say I wanted to know. Look,

want to be with you, not Amy.

Come and find me when you've got time
for someone else.

Judges only. The queue's outside.

Look, I'm sorry, all right? Is that
meant to be an apology?

Well, I've asked to be mates, but I'm
not going to beg.

I've gone out of my way so many times
for you.

All you do is just turn your back and
run off with your stupid gag.

Yeah, well, I said I'm sorry, didn't I?

Maybe I don't believe you.

All right.

Ready?

Who's...

Where are we?

My grandad's old allotment.

Sent most of my evenings up here as a
kid.

I thought you might be interested in
where the Clarkson men used to spend

time.

Now that you are one.

No doubt.

Just give it a chance, eh?

Cheese.

No pickle.

Don't say I never spoil you.

Second thought, might as well stay for a
bit, Mallory.

Well, I'll say this for you.

You're definitely a Clarkson.

How crude.

Next!

Can you just get off, please?

Is this your card?

Next. There's something about this
allotment.

It doesn't matter what's going on in the
rest of the world.

Up here, it's just peace and quiet.

Sound like an advert from the 50s.

Maybe I should have bought you that
video game, eh?

What? He was going to get me again, but
oh no, he decided to bring me here

instead.

Yeah.

I did.

Anyone can buy you things, can't they?

Only I can show you where you come from.

This is it, is it?

This is it.

This allotment.

That old shed.

My mum's house.

You being my son's got a lot more to do
than just you and me.

You've got a whole family out there you
haven't met.

And I intend to make you feel a part of
that.

Who

choreographed

that?

I'd rather not say.

Never, ever do that again.

Do you understand?

Yeah, all right.

Has anyone got a pen handy?

Or a pencil? Anything that I can
lobotomize myself with.

That's between you and your wife.

Well, did you think that you could just
get divorced and I'd forget about all

the lies?

Don't expect to be forgiven.

I know you well enough to know that
promises and gestures aren't going to

very far.

But because of what we had... I don't
want to be married to someone I'm not in

love with.

It's not enough for me anymore.

You made me see that.

So you accept that it is over between us
then?

I never accept it because it's not what
I want.

I respect your decision.

The fact that you're your own woman is
one of the reasons why I fell in love

with you.

I can hardly be surprised if you won't
put up with what I've done.

I love you and I've ruined what we could
have had.

I'm going to have to live with that.

Are you serious?

You're going to get a divorce even if
we're not together?

And for the record, I'm sorry if you're
getting

involved with me as compromising your
position at this school.

Sorry. Can we just have a minute,
please?

Actually, no.

Look, Amy Porter's just been to see me,
and I know why Helen passed that

inspection.

Hiya. Oh, if it is a Waterloo Road star
teacher. Well done.

I just came to say thanks for earlier,
and I'm sorry if I got in a bit of a

state.

Hey, what do you reckon to an after
-school book club?

Oh, yes, well, you know, mention it to
Max.

Oh, there'll be no stopping you now,
will there?

Helen, Rachel needs a word in her
office. Oh, actually, there's something

to run past you, if that's OK. Now,
look, I know book clubs can be a bit...

please.

These days, even those that can't teach,
teach.

I know, Grantley. Just because Helen
shows more aptitude for the profession

you.

Well, being Max's little pet project
doesn't make her a good teacher.

Could have got the job the old
-fashioned way, for all we know.

Yeah, I mean, through a rigorous
application process, of course. Still,

wouldn't surprise me we know how he
likes to mix business with pleasure.

You know, idle gossip's one thing,
Grantley, but casting aspersions on

professionalism? You ought to be ashamed
of yourself.

So, Helen, you didn't pay Amy Porter to
keep the class quiet during her

inspection?

No.

I mean, she did offer.

But I didn't accept.

That's what this is really about. Amy
wanted money, I wouldn't give it to her,

and now she's out to get me. It's
vindictiveness, pure and simple.

Amy hasn't got the best track record
when it comes to telling the truth.

Bill's a compulsive liar.

Surely we're not about to let her ruin a
young, promising teacher's career. This

is a serious accusation. I'm telling the
truth.

No one's saying you're not.

Unfortunately, it is your word against
Amy's.

You know, I'm going to need to
investigate it.

My hands are tied. I'm sorry, Helen.

I'm going to have to suspend you.

Just until I can complete the
investigation.

Then surely we don't have to go as far
as suspend anyone.

Common sense can prevail, can't it?

Fine.

But you're not to teach any pupils until
this is sorted out, am I clear?

Mr. Tide is so keen on keeping you in
the school and you can stay in your

classroom and catch up on some marking.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Max.

There's something you need to know.

What would that be?

Some people have no names.

OK, it's going to be budget, right? He
seems determined to ruin your

And I'm not talking about gossiping
about you and Kim. This is a whole other

matter. Well, I wouldn't pay much
attention to what Grantley said. I

don't. And neither do I, but other
people might.

There's a suggestion that your interest
in Helen is something other than

professional. And that she only got her
job here because you and her are special

friends. It's ridiculous, I know.

But, you know, these things, they have a
habit of going round. Some people.

They're not as professional as you and
I, Max.

The last thing I want is your fine
standing in the school to be

Thank you, Ruby.

Thank you.

I have a problem in Helen Hopewell.

Okay.

She's incompetent.

It would be best for everyone if she
left Waterloo Road as soon as possible.

She passed the inspection.

People are talking, gossiping about why
I appointed her.

You appointed her because she was right
for the job?

Didn't you?

This is awkward for me.

I just put my neck on the line defending
Helen to Rachel Mason and now I find

that my motives are to talk at the staff
room.

This is about protecting my professional
reputation.

Well, if it's all a ball ball, I don't
see how a bit of gossip can do you any

harm.

It's complicated.

Complicated?

How?

There was an indiscretion.

What kind of?

You didn't sleep with her.

I know, it's unprofessional, but let's
not pretend it never happens. You gave

her the job because you were sleeping
with her. Chris, I need your support on

this.

Let me get this right.

You've been sleeping with this girl and
now she's become a liability.

You want me to help you get rid of her.
I'm doing what's right for this school.

No, you're doing what's right for you.

Was threatening Rachel Mason for the
good of this school as well?

And were you lying to Kim about your
wife for the good of this school?

You know, I agreed to keep the details
of your marriage quiet so you could

maintain your professionalism.

Not dupe a colleague into having an
affair.

That's none of your business.

Believe me, I'd like to keep it that
way.

But I am the deputy head and you're
starting to run this school like your

personal empire.

Well, if I am, it's because I care.

And because this place is sorely lacking
in leadership.

Yeah.

Yeah, I used to believe that.

I used to think that your problem with
Rachel was professional. But it's

becoming more and more obvious that this
is personal.

You are the executive head.

You have other schools to be looking
after, yet here you are every single

What are you still doing here, Max?

Apart from dragging more members of
staff into the mess that is your

life.

So you'd really stand by and see Helen
Hopeful wreck my career?

Ruin everything I've worked for?

Whatever's happening, whatever trouble
Helen's causing for you, you've brought

it on yourself.

Then I suppose I'll have to deal with it
myself, won't I?

I suppose you will.

I'm Max.

The next time I hear about you
threatening a teacher in their home,

don't report it to the board, I will.

Where have you been all day?

Around.

Totally blanked me earlier.

She won't be in a right cow.

You'd think she was too good for us all
of a sudden.

Who cares?

You are.

Amy, you're just a daft little kid
playing games.

Got hopeful sense of the head's office
earlier.

I wasn't playing games then, was I?

And what happened?

Yeah, exactly. Nothing.

You think what you do matters?

Done. What I do matters?

You're just a spoilt little brat who's
never had to worry about anything her

whole life and everyone knows it. You're
wrong.

People are scared of me.

They are.

Go on, pay me.

It's about time someone put her in a
plate.

I know I've been horrible.

If my mum was there, she would have had
a few words to say.

I just want her to be proud of me.

She will be.

I need to talk.

I know.

Look.

Rachel's had it in for me from the
start, and she's going to use this Amy

as an excuse to get rid of me, so you've
got to do something about it, Max.

Put your foot down.

I'm not going to do that, Alan.

I don't care if you risk your own
career, but you're not risking mine.

Do you have any idea how embarrassing it
would be for me if people find out you

gave Amy Porter that money?

You knew?

Because I know you.

You can't teach, Helen.

You could never teach.

But... But I thought you said I had
promised.

Promise?

We both know why I gave you this job.

And I'm going to take it away from you.

It's always been about you, hasn't it?

Your reputation.

You know, making sure that anything we
did never impacted on your career.

You think...

After everything we have been through,
you can just bully me into leaving.

That'll be your word against mine, won't
it?

And so I think my word carries more
weight than yours. Yeah, except it's not

just my word, is it, Max?

I've got the disc, remember?

Yeah.

Yeah, maybe I'll give it to Rachel
Mason.

Or maybe I should give it to Kim.

You wouldn't dare.

I'm not going anywhere, Mac.

I'm going to do my job.

And I'm going to be good at it.

I'm going to prove you wrong, Max. I
don't need you.

Fine.

Because we need someone to cover Miss
Johnson's PSAT class year 10.

You'll find a few familiar faces in that
class.

You can handle that, can't you?

Little Miss Moneybag.

Lend us some cash, Amy. Now, wait a
minute.

Oh, that's right.

She hasn't got any.

Where's Miss Johnson?

I'll be taking Miss Johnson's class
today.

Nice one.

She said, Margie, you're a well better
teacher, Miss.

Wow. Crawl out of the backside, will
you?

Can't. Miss Hopewell's one of my
favourite teachers. Just leave it, yeah.

We've got a right one, don't we, Miss?

Oh, what's this?

The kids that have the X Factor. No, it
is the list of all the teachers who are

going to be taking part in the school
show. Now, I've prepared Waterloo Road

with John Foster's, because, I mean,
it's all about cohesion, isn't it?

Fags, you're not being the back of the
horse.

No, no way. I can't. Of course you can.

Believe me, you couldn't be any worse
than the kid.

So, er, any volunteers to read?

Sam, how about you?

Well, she's the one with the hand up,
not me.

Fine. Amy, take it away, please.

Once, there was this teacher called
Helen Hopewell.

And she was proper rubbish, and she knew
it.

And on the day of her inspection, she
woke up totally bricking it. Don't, Amy.

Cos you know you can't even control a
bunch of kids on your own. OK, that is

enough.

What the hell was that?

You're trying to look like you're in
control.

OK, stop this, Amy.

Stop it right now.

Why did you become a teacher, Miss
Hopewell? Amy, this is boring.

Sit down.

You know, I really don't think that is
any of your business.

Well, why did you become a teacher,
Miss?

Well, um... I... Speak up! We can't hear
you!

I became a teacher because I liked
school.

You liked school?

But...

to like about it. I like my teachers.

Saddo, what's the matter with you,
Hopewell?

I thought it might be nice to be like
him one day.

Do you know how pathetic you sound?

I like school. I thought it'd be nice.
You're like a little kid. How do you

think anyone could ever respect you?

It was never going to work, Helen.

You should have realised that from the
start.

You see, you've got to be an adult to be
a teacher.

And you, Helen, you're just a sad little
no -one without a clue.

Okay, stop it.

I'm going to cry if you don't shut up.

Do you want to cry, miss?

Do you want to go home to your mum and
tell her what a bad day at school you've

had?

Amy, this isn't funny anymore.

Just look at her.

Come on, miss. I was only joking, yeah?

Miss?

Miss?

It's all right. Will you just get off
me?

Are you happy now?

So you're going to have to come with me
to Hopewell.

All right, you lot.

Keep working.

Helen?

Back to your seats. Now, please.

Helen? That's it. I've had it.

Helen? No, I'm leaving.

I'm dead.

That's an understatement. Helen?

I'm leaving.

to cover Miss Johnson's class, and I
can't do it. Is Amy Porter in that

I'm not cut out for this. Whatever
happened today, you are not being driven

by a pupil. Will you listen to me? I did
it, all right?

I gave Amy that money, and I lied about
it, and I'm sorry. I really am sorry.

I just want it to do well, and it's not
Amy's fault.

It's mine, and it's my decision to
leave.

Helen. Rachel.

You've got to let her go. Oh, no, Tom,
we can't. What are you going to do, give

her another last chance?

Amy,

I'm here.

Amy,

I know the truth about that money.

Have you any idea the kind of trouble
you're in?

You're very lucky you've not been
excluded. I'm still considering whether

suspend you.

You should be ashamed of yourself the
way you treated Miss Hopewell today. It

was vicious.

How was I supposed to know she was going
to kick off like that? You knew exactly

what you were doing. She's supposed to
be a teacher. If she'd have just said no

when I asked her for the money in the
first place... That does not excuse your

behaviour.

If I ever, ever see you going after
someone vulnerable again, believe me,

going to regret it.

Is Miss Hopewell going to be all right?

If she's not, we both know who's
responsible, don't we?

Oh, dear.

You're not still in a huff, are you?

I've got a big mouth. It's hardly news,
is it?

It's not the best apology I've ever
heard, Steph.

Well, let me make it up to you.

You and I will go out on the town
tonight, just us girls, and by the time

through with you, Max Tyler will be now
to put a notch on your bedpost.

I found out that he's still married.

And I was mad.

But then I'm sat here and all I can do
is think about him.

I love him.

And now he said that he's getting a
divorce.

And is he serious?

Yeah, he seems to be.

Well, if you love him and that's what
you want, just be careful, Kim.

It's never straightforward with the
married ones, even if they do leave

wives.

And make sure that you do everything on
your terms.

Thank you, Steph.

You know what this is?

Should I?

It's the parting gift from Helen.

Parting? You mean she's decided to
leave?

Please tell me that you didn't give her
the job just because you were sleeping

with her.

It was a one -off, a long time ago. A
mistake.

Before we even came to this school.

Didn't really care about her future, did
you?

It was all about keeping your reputation
intact.

You must be thrilled.

I've been waiting for an opportunity
like this to bring me down.

All I have ever wanted is for us to work
together.

You're the one who made it very clear
that that's impossible.

And what exactly do you intend to do
with this information?

Oh, you worry that people are going to
find out how unprofessional and

you are.

I wouldn't lower myself.

Are you going to tell Kim?

Whatever I want to do with this
information, it will be my choice.

Rachel, please. I am head of this
school.

You'll do well to remember that.

Hey. Right.

She would turn you into a footballing
legend, eh? Your dad would teach you a

thing or two.

Always going on about his football days,
aren't you, love?

You up for it? I'm up for it if you are.

Just the sandwiched goldie oranges at
half -time as well.

You think I've nothing else to do?

No, go on.

I'll see you later.

You sure?

Yeah.

Have some boy time. Come on.

I'll race you.

Come on.

What's happening tonight?

Why would I want to spend my time
hanging around with you?

Because we're mates.

Aren't we?

No.

And do you know what?

I'd rather be somewhere else.

Hey. Hey.

I bought us some dinner.

Oh, a nice one. Actually, it's just
rubbish from the vending machine, but

could do it shortly.

Do you want to go for that pizza next
week?

Amy's not going to be there, is she?

No, and it's just you and me.

Hey. We need to talk.

You seen Rachel?

No. It's not about Rachel.

It's about us.

I want to give it another go.

See if the camera's wonderful.

There is a condition.

I like people to be straight with me.

Yeah, I need it.

So... We can draw a line under what's
happened, but I need you to promise me

faithfully that there'll be no more lies
between us.

No, no lies.

You know everything there is to know.
