I told him to do the right thing and come clean. Well, why would he do that

his father's so very good at keeping secrets?

From what I've seen today, there's something very wrong with this school.

The book stops at Karen Fisher's office door.

Why do I feel like we're being chaperoned?

I'm heading this town anyway. Then I'll go home and clean up after you two.

That'll be it first.

You might want to do some shopping.

We're out of pizza.

Oi, what is this? Boys gangin' up day?

All right.

I don't love her face in it.

So what's this invigilating thing about them?

It's part of my training.

Walking around a room watching us sweat?

Yes. You'd better be. There is no sweat required.

Cocky.

Cocky, cocky, cocky.

Good luck!

Yeah, yeah.

We're okay, aren't we?

Huh? Yeah.

Want that?

Glad to see things are working out so well with you and Naomi.

I'm very happy for you.

Thanks for these.

I'll take them with me.

Does Karen know about your meeting this afternoon?

She should do by now. I expect that's why she's just invited me to lunch.

Unless you know any different.

No, but then she wouldn't tell me anyway.

Exande!

A .S. and A -level papers for the sixth form.

There's a lot more riding on them than we thought.

Where's that?

The local authority are having a meeting today at three to discuss our data.

Whether we're failing as a school or whether I'm failing as a head.

Is it specifically about Waterloo Road?

Well, more specifically, it's about Karen Fisher.

I've tried to help.

I've given her loads of suggestions for the kids, but she likes the sound of her

own voice.

Bordering on self -obsessed.

I'm just preparing a report for them. How we move things forward.

Possible layoffs.

Redundances? Only as a last resort.

Richard Whitman's problem lies with me.

So?

Well, what are you going to do?

Prove them wrong.

Does this school have a future?

Let's just say that a failing school in my catchment doesn't look good.

Oh, yeah? What are you doing?

I've been trying to get a hold of you for ages. I've been ringing, texting.

are you avoiding me? I'm not. What's the big deal?

You flip your mind, don't you?

What is it?

Messed up.

I mean, I've really messed up.

Why?

Just tell me.

Look, don't hate me, AJ.

I'm pregnant.

Are you sure?

My daddy's going to kill me.

I mean, I take it as mine.

Yeah, of course, it's bloody yours.

Me and Ronan are always careful.

I can't believe it.

Yes, lads, get your energy drinks here, yeah? Go on, get your five a day.

Go on, it's got vitamin B.

Yes,

girls, come on.

How about an energy drink?

How are you doing?

I just want to stay in bed and forget about everything.

I can't believe we've got exams as well. I just wish it was all over.

Don't wish your life away.

Sam wouldn't want us to be together, wouldn't she?

Tell him that.

Right, you haven't told anyone, have you?

Well, we say nothing to nobody, yeah?

We'll sort this out ourselves first.

I look busy for you to say my head's banging.

All the more reason to keep it quiet.

We'll do the exam and then we'll talk, OK?

How can I?

I've not had any sleep. I've been up all night worrying.

If you keep it down, people will start to realise something is up.

Is there a problem here, Aidan?

No, miss.

Just a bit of half -minute nerves.

Are you sure, Vicky?

Yeah. Like you said, it's just exams.

I can't do that. You can.

Once you get inside and it starts, it'll all come back. Just focus.

First person in your family to go to uni and all that.

Hey.

That's the thing, I can't remember anything.

My mind has gone totally blank.

Quid. High -energy sports drink. Packs a real pick -me -up punch.

Do I look stupid?

Those things have got more caffeine in them than a coffee shop. You look like

you need it.

Do I?

Well, she looks like she needs it more than I do.

I mean, look at the state of her!

Look at me.

You'll find me.

All right, everyone.

In you go.

I will thwart this, okay?

Yeah?

All mobile phone gone.

What's inside?

No talking.

Oh,

I've bought that restaurant for your lunch.

It's dead posh there.

Me and my mum went through the window one.

Reckon we could only afford a pudding if we shared.

I thought you were getting this fixed.

Oh, yeah, well, it's on the top of my list.

Ish. So if you call someone, I'll come to come out and have a look at it. Oh,

well, I can pop it down to recess if you want, although on heels are killing me.

You can wait.

No!

All right, OK, silence, please.

Leave all your belongings and make your way single file to the assembly point.

What?

Said it has been with us through the example.

Dream on, Kyle.

My lot are present and as correct as they'll ever be.

Ditto.

It's a false alarm.

Oh, surprise, surprise.

Well, someone said it was.

Do you want me to talk to them? See who... No, I think that's my job, don't

Sure, sorry.

Can you oversee that?

I thought I was meant to be doing something individual.

Another time. I really need you to concentrate on getting ready for Sam's

memorial.

I could really do with something going right today.

Okay.

He's still alive.

I have to.

You can set the alarm off.

Are you kidding?

All right, everybody, that was a false alarm, so...

Back inside, please, as quickly as possible.

I'm trying to help you out here, Vicky.

I figured, you know, a few minutes looking at this, you've all come

back.

It's going to take some digging.

Nice of you to volunteer.

I think I can help.

Oh, thanks.

That's £1 .50, mate.

What, it's for university fund, is it?

Nah, I think I'll skip that bit. I'll be a millionaire by the time I'm 20.

It's going to take a while at this rate, isn't it?

It's been an hour.

Yeah.

Okay. Isn't it?

Excuse me.

If anything, you're going. You're not a pupil at this school.

Give that man a gold star.

Well, do you want to tell me what you're doing here, then?

Name's Scout. I'm starting school here.

You can't just turn up at a school.

It doesn't work like that.

Your parents have to get in touch and get you registered.

I tell you what, you're best off talking to my social worker. I can give you his

number if you want.

I'm in the middle of something right now. Janine, we've got a check.

This is, um... Jodie Allen, but don't bother calling me that because I won't

answer it.

Scout Arnopi.

Will you take her up to the office? I'll deal with her later. Is she all right?

Please,

Denise.

All right, you lot.

In you come quickly and quietly, please.

Straight back to your seats.

I'll be over soon.

Let's hope no one else pulls a stunt like that.

Did you open these?

No. Someone asked me.

You're joking.

An exam paper's been taken.

Presumably by someone in this room.

Do you know?

Quiet, please.

No one gets out of here until that paper is returned. And no one will be able to

take the exam until we find out who is responsible.

I said quiet.

I suggest whoever took that paper opens up now.

It's a pretty rotten thing to do, don't you think?

To your friends?

A lot of people have worked very, very hard for this exam today.

You think that's fair, do you?

You need this more than I do.

It was me, miss.

Can you come by this garden deck now?

Let's go straight through.

Janice, can you find the number for the exam board for me, please?

This is the new girl, apparently.

Mr Mead's dealing with her. Oh, and Miss Fisher?

I've got that flyer.

I've been looking after it for you.

Why did you do it?

I wasn't thinking straight.

Clearly.

That's not good enough.

I don't know, a moment of madness.

And the real reason.

Right.

Well, I'm going to have to telephone your mother and ask her to come in this

afternoon.

Do you understand?

Well, that was a disappointing start to the exams, wasn't it? What you expect

doesn't do to get your hopes up round here.

Hey, I'm... Great, I'm starving.

Oi! Those are for staff.

I am staff.

Shouldn't let people walk all over you like that.

Especially not some chit of a girl.

It's only a biscuit, Grantley.

Yeah, well, don't expect me to dip into your leaving present.

What leaving present?

I do these.

Do these.

A word.

Well, you've suddenly changed your tune. Anyway, I can't say anything. It's

because Mrs Fisher values my professionalism. Well, then I am sure

will be enthralled to hear about your lack of discretion.

I didn't say anything.

But next year there's going to be redundancy.

Mrs Fisher's going to meet Richard Whitman at lunch to talk about it.

Could have you done for a salt.

Don't tempt me.

We're OK to get started.

I've spoken to the exam board.

Great. Let's get cracking.

OK, everyone, listen up.

The exam is going to go ahead as scheduled.

You can turn over your papers now.

Finish that.

Sure.

Okay. Here we go.

And pens down.

Okay, that's time, everyone.

Please stop writing and put your pens down.

Whoa, steady.

We don't have to do this now, you know.

There's no rush.

That's right.

We can at least wait until we finish our exams.

No.

We said we wouldn't.

I want you to laugh at this.

She's the diabetic.

Well, you better have it then.

Yeah.

Might help.

I'll drink that out.

If you want to talk.

It's not going to change anything, is it?

What have you got there?

A photo from that field trip.

I'll leave you to it, all right?

I thought you'd done something stupid.

I like you, did you mean?

I can't let Ronan take the blame.

Shut up!

Ronan screwed himself over. I didn't ask him to.

Ronan doesn't even need his A -levels. He's not going to uni.

How can you think this is okay?

Just one less thing to worry about.

Look, about the other.

The baby aid and it's not a thing.

You know what I mean.

What are you planning?

I don't think about it yet.

No.

Of course.

But... But what about university?

I'm just going to do what's right for me and the baby.

It's not really a baby, is it?

I mean, there are options.

You don't have to keep it.

Don't you dare tell me what I do or don't want.

Listen.

I spoke to your mum, your social worker.

At least they know you're here.

Does that mean I can stay?

I've still got to clear it with the authorities, but you'll be okay to sit

classes. But...

You okay?

Yeah. Just watered the toilet.

That's all. Well, if you're on your way back to class, you can walk with us.

Hey, pack it in.

Mr Chalk, a moment, please.

And if any of you so much as breathe, I will have your guts forgot.

Walls have ears.

Redundance is on the horizon. No name specified, but we've got to be on our

guard. It's bound to be me, isn't it?

Hardly a shining light, am I?

It's not just you that needs to worry.

Has Chris let us in? No.

He's senior management.

You're missing someone.

Hey, Denzel. Denzel!

I wonder where you got to. Oh, this is Scout.

She's new today and she's in your class.

Hello, Scout.

Is everything all right, Grantley?

Fine, thank you.

We need to keep our powder dry.

But it's like we're going to be mates.

What's this place like, then?

That good, eh?

Scout, stop talking, please.

Sure thing.

Just shut up, all right?

Leave him alone. It's just my sister.

Yeah, thanks, Sam.

Yeah, can we stop all the noise, please?

Oh, yeah, Scout, can you work this thumb out instead of interrupting the class?

Yeah, 53.

I make it 72.

You got the square root wrong, 53.

It was correct.

How did you get there, then?

In my head.

Right, well, let's try another one, then.

Sam's taught that?

It was in the bag.

Rob? Did that not go well?

Vicky's pregnant.

Aidan, you are joking.

Does your dad know?

Of course he doesn't.

All he ever goes on about is me keeping out of trouble. OK.

So? He doesn't need to know anything right now.

What about Vicky's family?

She hasn't got anyone.

OK, well, that's something. At least we won't have her lot kicking off.

How far gone is she?

How far gone is she?

A few weeks.

She reckons she's going to keep it.

Aidan.

Give her a couple of days to sort her head out. Then she'll see things

differently.

He's going to kill me.

Not a word.

Do you hear me?

We've got me, you, your dad to concentrate on for the minute.

That'll have to come first, yeah?

Right, come on.

You can't stop here.

You've got to act like everything's okay.

Are you going to your lunch meeting?

It's a bit early, isn't it? I know, I know. I just thought I could use some

time. Just give him the report and tell him like it is. I'll be back for the

memorial service.

Oh, are you planning on saying something?

I think one of us should.

That's a good point. Oh, absolutely.

I'll get on to that straight away.

OK.

Maybe it's the chart picture. It doesn't matter.

Denzel, obviously done. What is it?

It was Sam's favourite, all right.

I feel very proud to have known someone as special as Dumbooka Kelly.

She had heart.

It's a mile wide.

And a smile to match.

And the mouth of a trucker.

Sorry, I, uh, I forgot that.

Well, it'll look great there.

Yeah.

Yeah, well.

So, Sam.

The first time I met her, she gave me a right mouthful.

And not getting any basketball court open on time.

Sounds like Sam.

And the second time, the same thing.

One of the reasons I like this school is because you treat the kids as

individuals.

We try.

Just be honest.

Hey, that new girl, Scout, she's bright to you. Don't believe that one, I see.

Bright or not, there's no point if there's no teachers to teach.

Well, what's going on?

Redundance is imminent, which doesn't bode well if we don't get good exam

results. Well, they can't do that.

Watch them.

The thing is, Tom, if I get made redundant, who's going to pay Fleur's

Well, it won't come to that for any of us. We'll make sure of it.

You worried for your job?

Me?

We'll cross that bridge if we come to it.

So, you think you can turn Waterloo Road around?

Well, interestingly, I've, um...

Drafted. Some options here.

The way forward.

It's all in there.

I'm not sure a document's going to crack it.

It's less about the what, more about the who.

You mean me.

That's what you're saying, isn't it?

You need to embrace the concept of change.

Find a way forward.

Okay.

If you were in my situation, what would you do?

Me? Mm -hmm.

Well, I'd improve exam results, nail the budget, get more pupils registered and

prove to us this school's still a viable proposition.

We all want it to work.

I can do that.

I hear what you're saying.

Let me try.

I never doubted your commitment.

Are you willing to say all this in your meeting?

Well, I'll do what I can and let you know the outcome.

Okay.

Let's have it.

What? The exam.

Went well.

Yeah, it was good.

Yeah. Yeah.

Good.

Good.

I'll see you later.

Bye.

I wish.

See you later.

Thought you'd gone home?

Thinking about what to tell my mum.

It's all right.

She doesn't care about exams.

Why did you do it, Rob?

Could ask you the same question.

Look, this isn't right.

I'm going to go to Mrs Fisher and tell her it was me.

No point.

You've already failed me.

Yeah, but you worked really hard for it.

So did you.

Tell Mrs Fisher now.

You've blown me.

University, everything you wanted.

Stop being so nervous.

What is it?

I promise it's okay.

No, I'm going to put this right.

Vicky!

Ah, Karen.

Good news about Julie Allen. She didn't stay with us.

I spoke to her mum and the LA. It's just the paperwork's complete.

Oh, that's great.

So, come on.

How did lunch go?

Well, actually, I'm a bit thrown. It went well.

Great. So, you think you've done enough?

I hope so.

There. I'll take the shower.

Don't do this.

I'm not done.

Brian didn't do anything.

He didn't steal the paper.

I did.

He was doing it to put it on.

So you smashed the fire alarm, you waited until everyone had gone outside,

then you went back in and you took the paper.

I don't believe you, Vicky.

Nor do I.

You do realise we're going to have to fail you because of this.

But can Ronan reset the paper? He didn't cheat.

Then who was helping you?

It was me and Aidan.

I'll speak to Roland.

Do you want me to get Aidan up?

Why did you do it?

Aidan was just trying to help me. Help you with what?

You've got to tell me what's been going on, Vicky.

I'm pregnant.

Vicky.

Why didn't you tell me sooner?

You're another member of staff.

I could have helped you.

Supported you.

That was a nightmare.

Anyone else do the calculus?

No chance. I need to get close.

At least that's it till tomorrow, though.

Just Sam's memorial left.

Longest day ever.

Don't do that, Amy.

Do what?

Lump our exams in with Sam's memorial.

It's not right.

No, I didn't mean it like that.

I can't say anything right, can I? What are you doing with all that?

Might as well lash it. It's just junk.

Finn?

It's Sam's.

It's just pens, man.

Hey!

Look.

I remember when she did this.

And he first kissed.

And, um, wasn't this the first time I went to the cinema?

Like I said,

it's just junk.

I've got you through in your office.

Including that woman.

Don't you mean Aidan's mother?

Well, I've got a few other names for Arthur yet.

You do know you're blowing any chance of getting into university.

I'm only doing my A -levels because you told me to.

All right, it's my fault, OK?

It's just an exam. It's not worth getting worked up about.

These exams are important for Aidan's future.

Don't you get snotty with me. Drop it.

It's all right, Rob. I can defend myself, thank you.

Sorry.

I just want to know why.

Did Vicky make you do it?

No. I think we should go.

I'm afraid there's still a lot to discuss.

Don't take that tone with me.

He's my son. You can't keep us here. And this is my school.

And I think we need to sort this out.

Sort what out?

Perhaps Aidan can explain for himself.

It's his business.

And if he doesn't want to, that's fine.

Come on, Aidan. Aidan?

Karen?

You ask your son, not me.

Why did you have to tell him?

It wasn't fair on you.

Well, how's this any better now? We're both disqualified.

You don't care about me.

Well, I do.

I didn't mind, you know. I wanted to do it.

I miss you, Vicks.

Can't we just... Don't.

Mr. Mead said Aidan took it for you.

Why? What's going on?

Come on.

There must be some reason why you do something so stupid.

It's not like you need the help, is it?

I'm really sorry, Rhonda.

I'm pregnant.

He's...

I

mean, who does Naomi think she is?

Rob should know what his son's been up to. Maybe she wants Aidan to tell him

himself. Or maybe it suits her for him never to know.

Oh, what a day!

Got three pupils not sitting their exams, one of them's pregnant, and all

day when I'm supposed to be convincing the LA that we are worth it.

It's about time.

Can it wait?

Yeah, right, OK, I'll speak to you later.

How did your exam go?

Fine, I think.

When are you two going to tell me what the hell's going on?

Leave it, Rob. Are you proud of yourself, are you?

Please, not now, mate. Enough. Come on, let's go. It wasn't enough nicking my

girlfriend, was it? You had to get her pregnant as well.

What?

Well, the truth.

I said, is this true?

Don't.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, you bloody idiot. I wasn't thinking.

You're too bloody right you weren't thinking. We're not where you're headed

anyway. Rob, stop this now.

I warned you about this. You promised me.

Get home.

Get home.

The lot of you.

This doesn't

have to be a big deal, Dad.

What? The woman's right. She can have an abortion.

What have you been saying to him, you stupid woman?

It isn't her fault.

Get out of my sight.

No, not you, Naomi.

I need to talk to you.

No. You haven't heard yet?

Heard what?

Vicky's up the duff.

She's pregnant?

By Aidan.

He doesn't want a baby.

Why would he?

Is that your answer?

You get a girl pregnant and get rid of it and then you just move on to Nick?

With no responsibility whatsoever.

I seem to recall we weren't very responsible about those things.

Yeah.

But we didn't walk away, did we?

And I didn't turn my back on either of you.

Teenagers. These things happen.

Are you serious?

These things happen.

Why don't we go home, all of us?

Talk this through.

I can't do this. What do you mean?

You haven't changed one bit, have you?

I was amok to even think you could.

Always looking for the easy option.

But, please... You're a lousy mother.

And the most selfish person I know.

Aidan's better off without you, and so am I. You're wrong.

I'd do anything for you two.

So you'd be happy living with a caretaker and playing grandma to an

child.

I didn't think so.

It's over.

Are you alright?

Yeah, I just needed a bit of space.

I know I should have come to you sooner before I messed things up.

Vicky, this wasn't after me giving up on your education.

I know it's early days, but... Have you thought about what you're going to do?

I can't imagine not having it.

In that case, you have to be realistic.

Everything about your life is going to change.

I know.

Wait, where are you going?

I'm leaving. It's over. Me and your dad have finished.

You can't leave. Where are you going to go? Somewhere as far away from here as

possible. What about me?

Come with me.

You're old enough.

What about Dad?

What about him?

I want the three of us to stick together and just sort things out. It's not

happening. I'm sorry. I've tried.

Why do you have to mess things up for us?

Think about it, yeah?

I'm gonna go and pack my stuff up.

I won't leave till you get back.

What's up, bro?

I've lost one. Stop on her.

Grab another one. She must have had hundreds. She was my favourite.

I can still smell her on it.

Oh, look, mate. It's gonna turn up, yeah?

She'll be furious at me for losing it. Oh, no she wouldn't. She'd tell you to

stop stressing.

Let's go to this memorial, eh?

Hey, Lauren.

You still got that box?

Uh, yeah, I know.

I was thinking about what you said and it's not junk.

You should bury it next to the tree. It'll be like she's really there, then.

I think that's a lovely idea, Finn.

I think you should keep that, Finn.

I reckon she'd want you to.

Cheers, man.

Hey, that's enough!

Where did you get this from? It was on the floor after maths.

I must have dropped it.

I didn't know.

Well, the next time you find something, you hand it in, OK?

What would have happened if I hadn't have been here?

I'd have stopped him, sir.

Look, I'm asking you.

I'm sorry.

I don't know what got into me.

Let's get the tree sorted, yeah?

I bet you're happy Dad's ending it with Mum.

He needed to know, Aidan.

You don't have to be a part of it.

Because you're going to need him now more than ever before.

I need my mum too.

Of course.

The difference is my mum's leaving and wants me to go with her.

Well, running away isn't going to solve anything.

My mum barely stood a chance with Dad.

And now you're butting in.

No wonder she wants to leave.

Aidan, wait.

Darren.

Richard wants to talk to you.

I presume this is about the meeting.

Mum?

Have you got a sec?

Could we take Richard up to my office? I'm sorry. There shouldn't be a moment.

Yeah. Come with me.

Whatever this is, couldn't it have waited?

No, Mum, I need to speak to you now.

Oh, let's go in here.

Is it your exams?

Have they got too much for you?

Because we can sort that. Mum.

My period's late.

Two weeks.

How can you be so stupid?

We've talked about sex.

Protection.

You silly, silly girl.

No, I am sorry, okay?

I didn't know what to do, I have to tell you. Have you done a test?

What are we going to do?

Well, maybe you should have thought about that before you jumped into bed

the local tomcat.

We'll talk about this later.

Why not now?

Well, let me think.

Perhaps it's because I have got Richard Whitman from the LA waiting for me in my

office. Or maybe it's because I had to disqualify three pupils from their

chemistry exam.

Or maybe it's Zumbuka Kelly's memorial service that I had to prepare for.

Or the fact that two... Pupils have told me that they're pregnant.

So excuse me if I don't have time to chat.

Why is it this place always comes first?

Don't you dare twist this on me, girl.

I've said we'll talk later.

And we will.

And crime won't fix it.

I'm sorry I'm late.

Did Janice offer you a drink?

Several times, but I didn't come here to drink tea.

So how did the meeting go?

We had a long and frank discussion, and the decision was unanimous.

It gives me no joy to serve a warning notice on this school.

We believe there's been a total breakdown in management.

So this is about me.

And what about our meeting at lunch? I thought we'd talked a few things

Karen, you're meant to be an experienced head, but you asked my advice on how to

run your school.

That, on top of all the other failings, left the council with no confidence in

your ability. You had this planned all along.

Clearly you're very upset.

It's understandable.

I'll give you some time to digest the news and be in touch as to what happens

next.

Is everything all right?

Are you OK?

What is it, Janice?

Oh, it's... You need it? It's Sam's memorial.

Tom? Would you mind reading my speech?

Sam's memorial.

Why? What's the matter?

I just don't think I'm the right person to do it, that's all.

Karen, of course you are.

I don't know.

I'm not really sure whether I'm cut out for this, to be honest.

When we lost Sam the way that we did,

I learnt a lot of things.

One of which being that you don't just give up when the road gets bumpy.

You know what she'd say?

She'd say, stop being a stupid old cow and get your arse in gear.

We've got to carry on.

We're still here.

again, hadn't I?

Yeah.

I feel very proud to be here today.

Proud to have known someone as special as Zambuka Kelly.

The first day I met Sam, I was new to the school.

And at the time, Sam seemed to me to be one of my biggest challenges.

She was full of attitude, opinionated, and very mischievous.

And that's putting it politely.

At first, I tried to control Sam.

Big mistake.

Sam was wonderful because she knew who she was.

And she'd fight for what was right.

She taught me what Waterloo Road is all about.

Life has a habit of throwing up some very big challenges to each and every

of us.

When we least expect them.

And it's how we deal with them that matters.

Sam never ran away from anything in her life. She faced things head on.

And I know that I'm not the only person here today who will miss her

more than words can ever say.

And Amy and Finn, over to you.

You. Come here.

We'll get through this, you know.

I don't know how, but we will.

What if we forget about her?

No, that's never going to happen.

You okay?

Yeah.

I am a viewer.

Beautiful, isn't it?

It is.

Pop round later, see how you're doing.

You know, I think you two should have some time together.

Just the two of you.

It's no problem.

Yeah. I'm fine. I've got Denville and Prince to look after me.

Do you know where we are if you need anything?

Mr. Fisher got a pretty good proposal for you.

Go on.

Well, I know that the school is struggling a bit, and I... Well, I'd

help.

English masterclass.

Courtesy of yours truly, open to years 10 and 11 on a Saturday morning.

That sounds like a great idea.

Starting next term.

I will be here teaching, as usual, next term.

Is this about the redundancies?

There are no redundancies.

But thank you very much for your offer of a Saturday school.

I'm sure it'll help the school.

That was beautiful.

Thank you.

That file was confidential, and you shouldn't have read it. Dad, what...

to interrupt.

Do you have them in?

That was a nice speech.

Thank you. I've told Naomi it's over.

It's never going to work.

And, uh... I was just too stupid to see, and... I am sorry.

I am.

I don't care about Naomi, Rob. Not after today.

Jess is pregnant.

She just told me.

And yes, before you ask, it is Aidan.

You need to sort that boy out.

He's out of control.

You could hardly believe it Like you'd believed

it times before

Almost gone.

She left without me.

She didn't even say goodbye.

And what, you were thinking of going with her, were you?

I had to, Dad.

I've let you down.

I've let everyone down.

We could have worked things out.

Just hang on a sec, son.

Let's just get one thing straight.

Your mother, she didn't leave because of me or because of you.

She left because of who she is.

And what she is.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Is... Is... Is this what she did last time?

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

OK, Aidan, there's something else you should know.

Jeff is pregnant.

And it's yours.

Her mum just told me.

I'll put some stuff into a bag and I'll just go. You're going nowhere.

I'm really sorry, Dad.

What about your job?

This place?

I've ruined everything.

Well, I... Do you know what? I don't know what's going to happen.

But I do know one thing.

You stuck with me.

Jess, can I have a word?

Jess?

About what happened earlier.

I don't think I handled it very well.

What's it going to do to you, Mum?

When this lot find out?

No matter what.

I'm here for you.

See you later.

Bye.

Why didn't you tell me?

Tell you about what?

About the warning notice. I've just spoken to the governors.

They've been trying to get hold of you.

No, I was going to when we finished here. It just seemed a lot more

Hey, you know that I'm behind you, don't you?

And the rest of the staff, they will be as well. What if they're right, Chris?

What if Waterloo Road would be better off without me? Don't be ridiculous. We

are going to fight this.

I don't want to let anyone down.

You give up now, and you will do.

All right.

Fight's on.

You're a failure.

This school is a failure, and it will be closed.

I thought we were going after Karen Fisher.

Helen, you can't back out now.

You're gonna deny it? She's up the dup as well.

You're disrupting the whole school, you know that?

You can stop your school.

She slept with my boyfriend behind my back.

Don't you think she's had enough punishment?

Oi!

Can we lose them?

Are you not serious?

I need that grass back.

Our priority has always been our pupils.

Pupils like Jodie Allen.

This is her life, John.

I'm standing here.
