00:10what's up wolf bag fam it's your boy kid back at it again i'm a little bit sad ladies and
00:14gentlemen why is that because this is the final episode of that'll teach them it's been an
00:19incredibly awesome journey looking forward to seeing what the hell is going to happen on this
00:23week's episode here you know obviously the the end game is here so you know who the hell is going
00:28to
00:28win boys versus girls i've been leaning after that race kind of performance by the girls i'm kind of
00:35leaning towards the ladies ladies and gentlemen because i don't know man i don't know that the
00:39guys are gonna lock in but i'm hoping for my boys but if it you know the the women take
00:46the dub i
00:47ain't disappointed at that it is what it is so i gotta watch this so do you all too just
00:52in case
00:52but go get your snacks ladies and gentlemen why because snacks is not included damn you gotta
00:56bring your fancy a cup and go make a sandwich whatever you need to come kick it with me
01:00and hopefully you have a laugh alongside me let's get it snacks not included let's freaking go
01:12you
01:21you
01:21you
01:22you
01:22you
01:22you
01:22you
01:23you
01:23you
01:37there are just 48 hours to go before the exams and the boys and girls have
01:41plenty of revision to be getting on with I sort of expected it'll be our bed by
01:55now physics is one over equals one over you while the girls take every opportunity to
02:10mug up on equations in beagle dorm Scott Peters has discovered a novel way of stimulating the
02:16boys brains as the exams loom the girls and boys deal with the pressure very differently
02:34the girls are probably a bit more worried about failing than the boys because I know that's
02:40good really upset me if I just don't know anything I think exams are really exciting
02:46and they're also quite a good time to find out how much you've learned in their final biology class the
02:59girls are about to be tested on topics they have learned over the last month and they've been
03:05revising hard my windows consider your answer compose a reply what is an organ organ it's a large structure
03:16of cells that performs a specific function in the body that's not a bad one can you please name for
03:25me two organ systems digestive and reproductive thank you very much excellent one but preferably
03:33two of the three types of cells found in a vascular bundle asylum correct flow correct what is the waste
03:42product of photosynthesis yes can you give me the chemical formula please for glucose
03:57when it comes to memorizing facts viewed for hard work remember to take your texts
04:04what I was afraid of looking like swats but ignorance is something the boys seem to revel in what is
04:12an organ
04:13group of same tissues group of similar tissues together you're sort of stumbling at it where would
04:22you find the proliferous layer in plants what does the term holophytic mean what's the next layer below the
04:37enamel of the enamel of a tooth no sure sorry all right so Dan Mills just like tooth isn't it
04:46it's just
04:48she's he's scared it's just like do you think an examiner is going to be impressed with an answer like
04:53calcium root calcium calcium truth no Jefford Siith In Gru Hudson oh
05:08Hedley correct that's a take one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven
05:13you've got to number 12 before we get the right answer but this scientific terminology that they've
05:19told me has pretty much just gone straight out my brain as soon as they've told me I listen but
05:24I
05:25hear them talking but I don't actually listen I just sit there write stuff and then when they get
05:30when I got out of the classroom it all just floats out my mind again it's not just exams that
05:35are
05:35looming on the final day of term the pupils will perform Gilbert and Sullivan's Mikado in front of
05:41their parents at the beginning of term rehearsing boys and girls together proved disastrous boys if
05:58I turn around once more and see you mucking around then I will be furious so to combat their bad
06:09behavior the boys and girls have spent the rest of term practicing separately yeah when the boys are
06:22alone without the girls there you know they are really really you know really singing it given
06:26that they're all the girls tend to do a lot better when they aren't in the company of the lads
06:30the
06:30singing is louder and the songs are just more enthusiastic now with only a few days to go
06:36before speech day the two groups need to start rehearsing together right everybody will have
06:43their hands at their sides when they sing this they will be imagining they are singing to the gallery up
06:49there they will not be biting their nails or hugging themselves or having a conversation with the person next to
07:02you
07:09having sung like an angel with the girls Ashley waters is suddenly too cool for school attitude once more
07:16there is one person who is currently spoiling it for everyone and it's Ashley Ashley will be in detention
07:23learning words because that's clearly what your problem is she was doing good it's not the first time
07:29Ashley's been punished for misbehaving stand there I am not prepared to be disobeyed do you understand what
07:38I'm saying she's already been made to scrub the terrace and wash the boys skidded underwear
07:52and if that doesn't sort out her act she'll be made to sing solo in assembly oh shit solo Ashley
07:59your
07:59improvement can start now we will sing this many ways the first way we're going to sing this is a
08:05slow
08:06ballad rather like this he's going to marry yum yum yum yum yum you're angry I think you have to
08:27succumb come
08:28come and join our expressions of please yes you see you're insincere you are totally insincere
08:38you're pretty hopeless to be honest whatever you're covering up get rid of it please and be a good
08:43and upright young girl get rid of the smirks well I don't know how long it takes to wipe that
08:49smirk
08:49off your face he warned me yesterday that if I was badly behaved then I'd have to sing an assembly
08:56so
08:57he's just told me that I have to sing an assembly and I said that I'm not he just thinks
09:00he's really
09:01good and he thinks that he'd like can have the power just do it just do it I'm not doing
09:14it
09:17morning girls if you get another day in 24 hours time the pupils at Charles Darwin grammar will sit their
09:26low levels after their disastrous performance in biology even the boys are doing some last-minute
09:34swatting
09:52but Ashley Walters has something else on her mind as a
09:56punishment for misbehaving she must sing solo at morning assembly before Ashley takes to the stage
10:16the headmaster has a warning for anyone else who is thinking of stepping out of line if you think because
10:23we're now in the final home straight of this term that there is going to be a policy change from
10:31the
10:32staff and from myself with regard to discipline disciplinary issues I can assure you there is
10:38absolutely no change so be warned now it's Ashley's chance to punish her classmates ear drums let's go
10:55oh
10:56oh
10:56oh
10:56oh
10:56oh

11:57oh
11:57oh
12:05for the girls it's the final chemistry lesson before exams back in the 50s chemistry was an
12:12unpopular subject with girls and it seems that nothing's changed throughout term our girls have
12:17struggled can you tell me now what two experiments have I done today yes Vicky you can't say anything
12:24can you tell me what two experiments have I done don't know either okay what two experiments have
12:28I done don't know either can you tell me you tell me you so will their industrious revision make up
12:36for a lack of enthusiasm Samantha could I ask you please could you define the word element for me
12:42an element is something with only one substance in it unfortunately that's the wrong answer I know
12:49what you're trying to say let Jenny have a go Jenny how would you define the word we're just
12:54revising girls just to see how much has gone in so far it's just like one one atom like yes
13:03I'm afraid
13:03that's completely useless you see that's completely useless because if you say it's like kind of just
13:08like that's exactly yes I know but the point is you see doesn't matter you have to be able to
13:13say
13:13it as a definition you see Jessica could you tell me the formula for sulfuric acid s so you don't
13:22remember do you not quite right Jenny sulfuric acid not so good girls can I remind you please this is
13:31one of the one of the basic formulae not SO4 but H2SO4 the girls swatting hasn't worked so what about
13:40the boys last minute covert cramming Ingram could you give me the chemical formula for nitric acid very
13:48good now could you give me the universal gas equation that we were studying just recently could you
13:54remember what the universal gas equation is P1 V1 over T1 equals P2 over P2 V2 over T2 well done
14:02please
14:03Campbell could you do what what you understand by the word chemistry chemistry is the science of
14:09how how substances change into different substances well that's a very good answer chemistry is the
14:14science of substances and how they change into different substances Hedley would you like to
14:19define for me the word compound two or more elements chemically combined as in a molecule well
14:25that's a very very good effort it's a very good effort two or more elements chemically combined
14:30in fixed proportions by mass in fixed proportions by mass boys can I now give you the full professional
14:37definition a compound is a substance which contains two or more elements chemically combined in fixed
14:45proportions by mass that's an exact definition and please remember the importance of using these exact
14:52words the boys are improving in chemistry but it can't just be down to last-minute cramming throughout the
15:00term the pupils have witnessed a host of dramatic demonstrations probably almost explode inside but
15:06that's normal any second now while these practical experiments have left most of the girls cold they
15:13sparked the boy's imaginations spirit of science has been rekindled within me because I've never really
15:21seen science in that light for kids we've done like some crazy I think there's been it's been some of
15:28the best science lessons I've ever had like the with the mass explosions and different dissections
15:33and stuff it's been absolutely amazing I never thought I'd dissect an eye or a rabbit or see a pig's
15:38bladder burst over one of my best mates and it's just been really interesting and how much freedom
15:44you have here I mean we've never been told got that do what you want to with acid to see
15:48what it is
15:58the boys are getting ready for combined cadet force training or CCF but one of them has faked a knee
16:05injury in the hope of skiving off
16:08it's just I woke up with it two days ago I woke up with it two days ago and it
16:13just hasn't gone yet
16:14might be rinsing it for a bit more than it's worth but at the moment it's not that bad but
16:19as far as
16:19everyone's concerned I'm in so much pain I can't watch it bullshit get that smirk off your face Peters
16:25since he arrived at Charles Darwin Scott Peters has been every teacher's worst nightmare you get out
16:33tuck your shirt in like many of today's children Peters is used to an education system that allows
16:40him to get away with murder sir could you take this individual way and put him in front of the
16:44headmaster
16:45please get out go away his biggest problem has been adapting to the strict discipline I am not
16:52going to stand for insolence to my staff lazy insolent and disruptive he's been repeatedly punished
17:01do it again I've already done it do it again he's even been isolated from the other pupils for 24
17:07hours
17:08now he's on his final warning because the next time that I will be telling you to pack your bags
17:14and to leave this school and you will leave in disgrace
17:20but he's still faking a bad knee to get off doing CCF how's your knee Peters it's still quite bad
17:27sir
17:28we'll see after we've done some drilling yes back straight look at me squat as you were right
17:34tan last one thought to the bushes about go get going there Peters get away get away Peters if Peters
17:43is the
17:44the last man back we'll spend all morning running up and down the field oh oh
17:50three two one there's only three people one two oh three the rest of the gig turn around and get
17:58back again I've got a bad leg and I'm beating all of you you got slow get going get past
18:05that individual
18:05Peters is missing you around three two one fall in no talking Peters get over there you're in
18:20malingra you're skiving you're letting everybody down I don't want to see you anymore don't stand there
18:28the sergeant isn't the only one to a spotted Peters taking it easy so has mr. Williams the deputy head
18:34to turn around I've been watching you you were told to take a full and active part in every area
18:44of the curriculum and that includes CCF you are not taking a full and active part and don't try and
18:50give me the excuse about your knee there is nothing wrong with your knee don't even go there I am
18:58not
18:58convinced that you are gonna last the rest of this week you had your final warning he wants to say
19:06some smart shit hold out horizontal do not drop below the horizontal modern school teachers are
19:16discouraged from shouting at pupils but in the 1950s it was commonplace pull them up the beginning to drop
19:23oh not up that way that's better not easy you have not wanted to do this from the very beginning
19:35and you have tried to make sure that you don't participate up hold them up hold them out I can't
19:47sir
19:49so you can't do CCF you can't take a full active part you can't even take a punishment
19:57I'll try my best sir but if my knee hurts I can't can I there is nothing wrong with your
20:01there is something wrong with my knee that's all made up boy I was watching you why are you lying
20:07this is gross insolence how dare you how much more have we got to take of you I've had it
20:14up to
20:15here get over to that wall I think your next trip is going to be to the headmaster damn can't
20:24be good
20:24stand in front of me Peters on the 13th of August Peters you're rude to dr. Wilde I warned you
20:32the
20:32consequences on that particular occasion of a repeat performance this morning we've had a problem
20:37once again with CCF about which I've spoken to you once again you are argumentative and more
20:44importantly once again you have been insolent we've now reached the end of the line I warned you I made
20:53it
20:53very clear that if you were to step in front of me on a disciplinary matter again that will be
20:59the
20:59end of your time here and it is the end of your time here you are expelled from Charles Darwin
21:05grammar
21:06school forthwith leave my study please mr. Williams would you collect this boy oh did he get what he
21:19wanted they just wanted clearly Peters doesn't see anything wrong with his behavior it's a sort
21:28of low-level disruption that bedevils classrooms up and down the country today no wonder teachers are
21:34leaving the profession in their droves Peters didn't like doing anything that he wasn't absolutely sure he
21:43was gonna succeed in he caused trouble he tried to get out of things and I'm afraid that he wasn't
21:52up to
21:52the standards required here the rest of the pupils have yet to hear the news of Peters expulsion
22:07one girl is particularly worried about Peters fate for what we have received may the Lord make us truly
22:15thankful amen I have one announcement to make for persistent bad behavior and for an incidence of
22:26insolence to a member of my staff this morning I expelled Peters he's no longer a pupil at this school
22:33I give it to
22:34for a point of information Vickers daughter Vicki Buxton has been conducting a teenage romance with Peters I do quite
22:44like him and you know and he obviously and he said to me that he really likes me so and
22:51there's just something there
23:07you know what the word crappy music right it just means it's the old-fashioned way of getting to know
23:13a a
23:15girl by talking a lot doing things together but not good taking it any further than that for a long
23:21time
23:22it's really good it means you really know the person before you commit to any further people don't
23:28really understand how much me and Scott I've got to know each other in the weeks and how feelings have
23:33I've got the better of us
23:38his attitude
23:50at times like this there's only one person to turn to why have you been crying
23:58is it because Peters is gone no
24:05Victoria you know that it's exam times and your parents are looking at you to do well
24:13and if you let them down to be an absolute waste of time
24:19now you'd have to show everyone just what metal you've got
24:23and get on with the task in hand
24:26the next four days are the most important of the whole term
24:30do you understand what I'm saying to you
24:33and go and lie in your bed
24:35I'll come through and check you out in a minute
24:40I don't think there's very much wrong with Victoria at all
24:42I think she's a lovesick brazen hussy who's basically wasting time crying when she should be in revision
24:53at the end of the day nobody really really knows like how well we knew each other
24:58and and how much and the connection that we made
25:03it was really hard
25:13at Charles Darwin Grammar it's time to find out who's benefited most from a 1950s education
25:19the boys or the girls
25:23the competition has been fierce it's not just in the classroom that they have been striving to outdo each other
25:29now the contest to keep the cleanest dormitory is reaching its climax
25:34some of the girls take it really seriously the whole dorm inspection thing
25:37but I think there is going to be a really good prize at the end of it so I do
25:39want to win it
25:40also it will wipe the smile off the guys faces
25:42because I think they think they're going to win too
25:44we've done quite well and the girls keep getting the odd zero
25:47and for the last two weeks we've had five pretty much every day
25:50yeah I think we should win
25:51on my bed
25:53matron is conducting her final inspection
25:56take your blazer off
25:58the slightest slip up could prove decisive
26:00undone
26:01top button undone
26:03bed not satisfactory
26:04get it done
26:06if I see anybody with floppy hair today
26:09I shall not be impressed
26:12me holding the wall up
26:13sorry
26:15what is it matron
26:16your top button
26:18it looks like the girls have blown it
26:20but the boys still need to pass muster if they are to win
26:24unlike you
26:25look at your tie
26:26there's a gap here
26:28I could get a train through there look
26:30why are you standing like that
26:32you're standing like a catwalk model
26:34don't
26:35are you looking in the mirror when you shave
26:37the boys have their necks in front
26:39but matron spotted one of her pet hates
26:41if you fiddle with your fly again
26:44I'm fed up with it
26:46you've got to stop playing with yourself
26:48hey you
26:49don't wear what they eat
26:50that's normally down the front of them
26:52why must you look like a gangster
26:54or there's somebody who doesn't know how to do a tie
27:00you'll be notified at tea time who has won
27:05I don't know how big of the girls
27:07but tea time is a long way off
27:09first a solid day of exams stretches before them
27:15tea time
27:17after four weeks of traditional teaching in single sex classes
27:21the pupils are about to sit genuine 1950s O levels
27:26examinations are stressful
27:28but they are a necessary part of life
27:31and if you have worked hard
27:34if you have applied yourself
27:36we can really ask no more of you
27:38than to try your utmost in the examination
27:42today's GCSEs are a far cry from 1950s O levels
27:46you may now lift your log tables where you will find your question paper
27:50back in the 50s
27:52multiple choice questions and course work were unheard of
27:55students were judged entirely on their performance in the exam
27:59and to get a pass
28:00they had to score at least 45%
28:05today pupils can scrape a pass in
28:07some GCSEs by scoring as little as 16%
28:16would you put your pens down please
28:20as soon as i saw the exam paper i thought oh dear
28:23and you just have to write i mean i've never done that normally you get like gaps put your answers
28:28in and like we'll solve this equation
28:30it's not sort of like you can kind of waffle a little bit and improvise
28:33it has to be so exact here
28:35all their marking criteria is not how they can give you marks
28:39but how they can take away marks
28:41and that to me is just wrong
28:42i hate to actually have to do my like proper O levels for the rest of my life
28:48it would just suck
28:49turn over
28:50you may begin
28:52the next exam is chemistry
28:56in addition to a written paper students taking chemistry O level
29:00sat a practical exam
29:01an alien concept to most GCSE students today
29:06the students are given three compounds which they must correctly identify
29:12the boys approach the problem with typical gusto
29:25a mini heisenberg's here
29:31in the 50s boys were streets ahead in chemistry
29:35today with no practical exam girls have the edge
29:39time now is 11 32 turn over you may begin
29:47true to form the O level practical fails to inspire the girls
30:15it looks like vicki buxton has been losing sleep over her lost love
30:25will you stop writing now
30:27examination is now over there is strictly no talking until you're out of the examination room
30:36i did find it really difficult and i don't think i've done that well
30:40i'm definitely failing chemistry i knew that before
30:43um i had the exam the exam just just kind of emphasized that and i had no idea what any
30:50of it meant
30:51um but i made it up
30:52i've never done practical exams before and i didn't really enjoy it because i kept thinking i was
30:57going to blow myself up i wasn't very confident and i didn't have the faintest idea what i was
31:02doing i didn't do anything really i didn't do anything i didn't do anything i just made it up
31:06as usual the boys are pretending it's all a laugh but they can't hide their enthusiasm
31:21the boys seem to come out of that exam really confident all the ones that i've spoken to
31:25since the exam were saying yeah i thought it was all right i think i did okay in the practical
31:29and the girls i think there's only about two girls who have said it was all right
31:33so maybe the revision isn't paying off it was an hour and a quarter but it seems so short because
31:37you're actually doing something that's quite fun so the practical exam i think was really good and
31:42i think that would be definitely something to you know put forward for gcse all the papers are being
31:49graded by professional examiners and in o-level chemistry there are no marks for enthusiasm
31:54only accurate scientific answers will do the boys on average scored about four percent better across the
32:02board that's from the top scoring boys to the bottom one the equivalent on the girls not as good the
32:08boys seem to deal with the practical exam much better than the girls they got on with it they like
32:13that consequently they tended to make more observations they tended to see more of the reactions we were
32:21looking for
32:30as if exams weren't enough to cope with there's been no let up on the domestic front either
32:36for the past month matron's been a stickler for good table manners
32:41but in spite of her efforts she has found some pupils eating habits still aren't up to scratch
32:48for what we have received may the lord make us truly thankful amen
32:54with only a few days before they go home she's told the worst offenders to stay behind for an extra
33:00lesson oh shoot where you hold knives and forks could do with a little bit of help i feel are
33:06you
33:06left-handed then why have you got your knife and fork like that not allowed it's not proper
33:12and a drug bean just eat a little bit please yes you see why can't you do it like that
33:18all the time
33:19it looks as if you've been dragged up not brought up and quite frankly that is not what i like
33:26to see
33:27what
33:33thank you
33:38you need to hold your knife and fork properly not like this you are not painting a picture
33:44this is how people see you can't even hold a knife and fork properly it's quite disgraceful
33:51obviously there's really anything wrong with my eating as long as i get food at the end of the
33:54day fork in the left knife for the right for the other basics i don't think it's like really matters
33:59what way you hold your folk i just think it's not an old people thing they just like want to
34:04pick up
34:04on it's like you know never really been a problem before but apparently it is now it's like she's
34:11going to show me how to pull my knickers up next the final exam is english language today at gcse
34:26girls on average score 14 percent more than boys time now is 17 minutes past nine you may start
34:36but unlike today o level english focused on linguistic rules grammar clause analysis and the
34:43parts of speech pupils were marked down for sloppy punctuation and poor spelling
34:51and there's another crucial difference today coursework accounts for up to 40 percent of arc
34:57this rewards diligence good presentation and culling use of the internet but less a pupil's ability to
35:10perform under pressure please put your pens down so who will cope best with this more stressful
35:15environment i am made up with that english exam it was nice and easy no real put-offs yeah i
35:23had 10
35:23minutes left at the end and it was just just just the perfect exam really couldn't have gone any better
35:28i did pretty well it was one i think maybe one of the only exams that i really properly understood
35:32what i
35:33did but i'd say that's been the best exam yet and i think i've i could have scraped apart with
35:37that
35:37hopefully but i did good the boys have post-exam euphoria but the girls claim to have found it a
35:46struggle there were things like auxiliary verbs which i didn't know what they were the only kind of
35:52difficult bit was the clause bit i just kind of ignored did you ignore that bit i didn't do it
35:56no i didn't know it here when the papers are marked the examiner has some surprising results
36:03well overall the girls average out of 51.5 percent and the boys were 44 percent the boys are still
36:13trailing the girls but only just they've significantly narrowed the gap why as a general rule i would say
36:21that boys tend to prefer 100 examination um it seems to suit their their personalities more whereas
36:29girls like redrafting and redrafting and redrafting um and getting a little bit better each time so
36:37therefore yes girls do better in the coursework generally when it comes to english and then boys
36:41feel more comfortable in the exam i prefer gcses to o levels because with gcses you have so many things
36:48you can fall back on and if everything goes wrong and at my old school if your coursework wasn't like
36:52to the best standard that you could get it you'd get a second go which was quite good but here
36:58you
36:58haven't got that opportunity you don't go into the exam with any like any um any revision kind of
37:05things any notes any poems like you don't have an anthology like you do in english or like a calculator
37:10or maths or anything and you have to go straight into the exam and learn it all from heart which
37:14i think
37:14is quite hard the boys and girls will have to wait till the end of term to find out who's
37:20come top in
37:20the exams but there's one result they don't have to wait for right silence matron is about to make
37:31the award for the better dormitories oh which is the better dormitory
37:47who would have thought that modern teenage girls would get so excited about sweets and fizzy pop
37:52come on boys slack while the winners gorge themselves on 1950s tuck the losers must settle for spotted dick
38:14the girls won yet again um and i think the girls are better at basically everything well we tried
38:23and tried and tried and tried and tried and tried and we tried even more but we still lost to
38:26the
38:26girls i think that the girls are so much better because we work better as a team we don't all
38:31shout
38:31at each other all in all the girls are much better than those boys ashamed of them to admit it
38:37it's just quite clear that we're better than them i've always known that though but it's just that
38:41we kind of proved it there's just defeat again it's speech day at charles darwin grammar today the
38:51children will see their parents for the first time in four weeks in the dormitories there is an air of
38:57impending doom in just a few hours time the boys and girls will get the results of their o-level
39:03exams
39:05my parents are just going to be so disappointed i'm as cool as a cat don't lie no i'm not
39:10i'm actually
39:11crapping my pants
39:18but first they must calm their nerves and perform the school musical gilbert and sullivan's micado
39:27an anxious miss gibson is hoping to avoid the problems of previous rehearsals
39:35so
39:53i
39:54Dis Strawive levels of fire,
39:55And I'm wouldn't do that I'll put on your akaraking
39:59In the fin, I will walk pollatany
40:04And laughed really didn't to me
40:04It's all but rew firm,
40:10and seemed to pardon himself
40:16And didn't say that that'd be true
40:16Ok, now my water
40:29They've performed well on stage, but how did they do in their O-Levels?
40:36The moment of truth has arrived.
40:38The children are about to find out who's got the most out of a 1950s education,
40:43the girls or the boys.
40:46Now, on to the serious stuff.
40:48I'm about to award the certificates for O-Level examinations.
40:55Oh, boy!
40:57O-Level grades ranged from one to nine.
41:00Grades one to six were passes.
41:02Grades seven to nine were failures.
41:06We'll start with the girls.
41:09Yeah!
41:11Victoria Buxton, biology nine, chemistry nine, physics eight.
41:18Mathematics nine, English language four.
41:23Vicky Buxton was predicted 10 A's at GCSE, but she only passed one O-Level.
41:29We got one.
41:30Ashley Walters, biology eight, chemistry nine, physics nine, mathematics nine, English language six.
41:40In her GCSEs, Ashley was predicted A's and B's.
41:43At O-Level, all she could do was scrape one pass.
41:47On to the boys.
41:49For these GCSE high flyers, it's a poor show.
41:53The girls mustered just 13 O-Level passes between them.
41:56But have they beaten the boys?
41:59William Ho, biology nine, chemistry nine, physics nine, mathematics eight, English language five.
42:07Hey, he did bad at math, too?
42:09Shit.
42:10William Ho was predicted A's and B's at GCSE.
42:12He only passed one O-Level.
42:15Nathan Anadugbe, biology eight, chemistry nine, physics eight, mathematics nine, English language nine.
42:26Nathan was predicted A's in GCSE science, but at O-Level, he failed the lot.
42:32Jeez, he got an award for failing.
42:35In the academic competition between the boys and the girls, the winners overall are the girls.
42:47The girls have beaten the boys in their final exams, but after just four weeks of 1950s education, there's a
42:54significant change to the grades they achieved at the start of term.
42:58Boys, can you please stand?
43:00The boys have improved dramatically, narrowing the gap on the girls.
43:05They were inspired by 1950s practical science and preferred exams to coursework.
43:11But perhaps the most important reason for their improvement has been single-sex classes.
43:16The boys know much better in the single-sex classes than mixed, because when you're in the mixed class, we're
43:22always trying to, you know, show off with the girls,
43:25trying to look big and just show off and look the better boy than the other boy next to you.
43:31There's nobody to impress so much, because 16-year-old boys try and impress girls, you know.
43:35I think the boys behave better in their single-sex classes, because they're more inclined to listen to the discipline
43:41of the teachers.
43:42I don't know what it is about when boys, as soon as they mix up with girls, you know, they
43:45start trying to entertain more,
43:47putting on more of a front and stuff like that, way you can lose concentration, and obviously marks will drop
43:51subsequently.
43:54But there's one more surprise for the children of Charles Darwin Grammar.
43:58Their parents have all brought their GCSE results.
44:17I don't think I've got my scar on.
44:26Again, better, look at them.
44:30Nathan Annie Dugby didn't get a single O-Level pass, but his GCSEs tell a different story.
44:37OK.
44:38I've got an A in drama, and then two C-A stars, a few little studies.
44:42I've got an A, a one A, a one A.
44:46Drama A, history A, religious studies A.
44:49I've got an A in maths, A's in English.
44:51In English literature? Oh, my God.
44:53Oh, my God, I've got an A, B, it's a different.
44:57Biology A, chemistry B, physics A, English literature A.
45:01Yes!
45:02I've got a B in maths, I've got a B in maths.
45:05I've got all A's and B's.
45:07Nine A stars, two A's and a B.
45:10Ashley Walters scraped just one O-Level.
45:13I've got an A in English, I've got an A in English literature.
45:16I've got a C in maths.
45:17I've got a C in maths.
45:19I've got a C in maths.
45:20And...
45:20Oh, an ICT!
45:22Yes!
45:23That's three A stars.
45:24Well, boys, I...
45:26Darling, well done.
45:28I got 13 GCSEs, but I didn't get any O-Levels.
45:31I failed miserably in O-Levels.
45:34I did well in GCSEs.
45:36Definitely O-Levels are harder.
45:38I mean, there's no doubt about it.
45:40You can't...
45:40O-Levels, come on, I'll be taught the stuff that...
45:43How the hell...
45:43What am I gonna do with clause analysis in the future life?
45:46What the hell am I gonna use it with?
45:47Yeah, the O-Levels are just stupid, you know, different...
45:49Completely different to the GCSEs.
45:51These are designed to help you pass.
45:53O-Levels are designed to help you fail.
45:55These are really, really good.
45:57Thank God, I'm out.
45:59Deuces!
45:59Ha ha!
46:01Deuces!
46:03Ah, bittersweet.
46:04Ladies and gentlemen, we're gonna ask a random question.
46:08Because we heard when these kids were eating.
46:11Hey, are you left-handed and stuff?
46:13So, for those watching, made it this far, let me know, um...
46:17You know, which hand do you write with?
46:19Me?
46:19I'm a lefty, ladies and gentlemen.
46:21Anyways, let's chat about it.
46:23I could write a little bit with my right, but mostly left-handed.
46:26Let's chat about it.
46:27Ladies and gentlemen, number one, I hope that you enjoyed it.
46:30I had a feeling that the girls were just gonna knock it out the park.
46:35They locked in, and they overall did much better than the guys.
46:39I think that sometimes, can only speak for myself, that a lot of times...
46:44Well, for myself, just didn't apply myself as much.
46:50Maybe it's probably the same way that this kid Peters did, man.
46:53Unfortunately, man, it's gonna hurt him, or maybe you don't give a shit anyway.
46:57But ideally, you would think that to make it to almost the end, to go and be expelled and kicked
47:07out, that's gotta leave a mark.
47:10You know what I mean?
47:10For me, I feel like he would've probably just applied himself.
47:14I believe that he had the ability to do that, because when he wanted to do something, when he was
47:19like, for example, I believe, the javelin thrown, he was doing it.
47:23He just didn't want to apply himself.
47:25And that happened to me many, many, many times.
47:28You know, I had to go get tutored a lot and shit.
47:33You know, I had to talk to, you know, some of my Asian friends to help me out in the
47:38maths, because all of them were good.
47:40And I needed a lot, a lot of help.
47:43I had so many people trying to help me to, you know, keep me afloat to just barely scrape by.
47:49So I was scraping by like some of these kids were doing here.
47:54Old levels definitely seems like it's more harder and probably because you have to really be thinking.
47:59You gotta apply yourself a lot more.
48:01Sure, it's designed differently than the way that kids today are more spoiled and shit is almost handed to you
48:09on a silver platter.
48:10So, amazing show.
48:13It's been their joy, seeing them, the joy that the kids have at the end was giving me joy.
48:19Anybody else feeling that too?
48:20So to see them smiling, some of them gutted, some of them not as impressed with, you know, their performance.
48:26But listen, the girls knocked it down out the park.
48:29So I'm thinking about it as the series has been going on for quite some time.
48:34And I'm thinking about how like the girls were in my high school and middle school, mostly the high school.
48:43I feel like that the girls really did better than a lot of the guys.
48:51Like as far as in the overall stuff, I feel like that when it's probably going to be, I don't
48:59know, hopefully it doesn't upset people.
49:00But I think that from the smartest guys that we had dominated.
49:04But in like between and stuff, between all our knuckleheads on the guys side, I think the girls just overall
49:10did way better.
49:11But our smartest guys were way smarter than our smartest girls.
49:15You know, I'm not trying to, you know, cause some beef here and shit.
49:20But I just think that guys just didn't apply themselves.
49:24You know, they were more worried about other things.
49:28You know, so much shit that guys were thinking about more that, you know, easily distracted.
49:33So having the different classes, you know, boys versus girls made it a little bit, I probably would have paid
49:40more attention.
49:41Cause like these guys, you know, you're going to get distracted and stuff like that.
49:44You got a pretty girl sitting across and you got somebody teaching you some shit about some shit.
49:50And you know, pretty girl over there, man.
49:53So you get distracted very easily.
49:54So I can understand.
49:55I definitely could relate.
49:57Um, it's been a joy.
50:00It's been an absolute joy.
50:02The teachers, them getting yelled at, been there, done that.
50:06Matron's cool, roofless at times, shitting on them at times.
50:10Um, you know, the girls like Ashley getting in trouble.
50:14Uh, Peters, the guy getting in trouble.
50:16There's a couple of been a couple of knuckleheads here on this show.
50:20They make it entertaining ladies and gentlemen.
50:22It can't be all, you know, studying and shit.
50:25You got to have a little entertainment.
50:26It spices up this show, but you know, proud, you know, watching these, you know, weeks.
50:31You're, you're rooting for this stuff.
50:33The girls just started having it in the bag, even from the, the race that they did, man.
50:38Um, they were just better at, better at it.
50:41But I think that, you know, when it came to the science experiment stuff, the guys got a little bit
50:45more into it.
50:46Uh, rightfully so sometimes people are more hands on, but the girls, you know, they knocked it out.
50:52So we got to give credit with credit as dude girls, you know, killed the boys on this, man.
50:57They got some sweet treats, some, you know, uh, some fizzy pops and soda pops, uh, you know, some snacks
51:03and stuff.
51:04So I was jealous, man, but the boys snack wasn't that bad.
51:08It was a bread pudding, but they said something else.
51:10Cock.
51:11Why was I, what the hell?
51:12I don't know.
51:12I heard that name before.
51:14I was like, what?
51:15Oh, feel me, man.
51:16Maybe I just heard it wrong.
51:18There's something.
51:18What?
51:19What?
51:20What the bloody deuce is that shit?
51:22So I don't know.
51:22What was it that it was called?
51:24It looked like bread pudding and me, man.
51:26But, uh, I mean, I don't know every snack possible, but did you enjoy the show?
51:30Let me know in the comments down below.
51:32I'm a little bit sad because this is a really good show.
51:36I've been watching a hell of a lot of cool different types of shows, you know, from Ladhead to Lady,
51:41you know, Lad's Army, this type of show that'll teach him.
51:44I've just been gravitating to it.
