00:23Hey, shall I call for you?
00:24That's right, I'll see you at school.
00:46Hey, got your garden thingy sorted?
00:48It's a joint English art project.
00:51Cross-curricular cooperation.
00:55Um, Luke Pendle.
00:57His caro manager's been on.
00:59He didn't get in till six o'clock this morning.
01:01Yeah, she's threatening to call the police for breaks, another curfew.
01:04All right, I'll have a word with the home.
01:06Since when did exec heads get involved in pastoral issues?
01:10Luke Pendle's one of our brightest kids.
01:12And so you're best to deal with him because what?
01:14OK, OK, you deal with him, but keep me informed.
01:17As soon as he steps out of line, I want to know about it.
01:22This will sort out, Pendle.
01:24Start of the Tyler revolution.
01:29Does Rachel see this?
01:30No, but I'm counting on you to bring her on board.
01:33Let's go.
01:39Let's go.
02:07Excuse me.
02:09Chill out zone comes to Waterloo Road, eh?
02:11This is the Waterloo Road garden project.
02:13Like the Blue Peter garden, only we don't want people burying their dogs in it.
02:16I think you might find it was a tortoise.
02:19See you later.
02:20See you later.
02:20So what do you think Miss Mason's gonna do?
02:23Carla's back today.
02:25Mason said nothing to me.
02:26Lindsay, everyone's saying it were you.
02:29Just tell Miss Mason you lost it.
02:32You're upset about your mum.
02:35I don't need your advice, Roz.
02:52You okay, Carla?
02:54Yeah, she's fine.
02:55Don't worry, Lindsay's not gonna get away with this.
03:02I want the set changes implemented as soon as possible.
03:05Look, all the top set kids will be JF pupils.
03:08I thought we were trying to create peace, love and harmony.
03:11I believe in meritocracy in and out of the classroom.
03:15In time, standards will rise for all our young people.
03:20Sorry.
03:21Take Luke Pendle, an extremely able pupil.
03:24He's displaying all the signs of succumbing to peer pressure.
03:27He needs challenge, he needs to be taught by the best teachers.
03:31Just who are the best teachers?
03:33Exactly.
03:34I'll decide that.
03:37I wanna hit the ground running with this.
03:39This school is coasting, ladies and gentlemen.
03:41Look, are you forgetting that we created a sixth form?
03:44Completely transformed the curriculum.
03:46I'm not forgetting that, Tom, no.
03:48But take your department.
03:50High turnover of staff.
03:53Attainment well below that of other schools with a similar intake.
03:55Are you telling me you're happy with that?
03:58I want every teacher's future plans on my desk within a week.
04:02We're implementing sets.
04:05Get used to it.
04:08I had no idea about any of this.
04:12Light the blue touch paper.
04:14You're not kidding.
04:15Keep your ears to the ground and see how it goes.
04:17It's a bit cloak and dagger, isn't it?
04:19Black art of leadership, Chris.
04:21I thought leadership was all about communication and teamwork.
04:24Leaders need to be unreasonable.
04:26It inspires people.
04:27Progress depends on it.
04:29Get back to me.
04:31Max!
04:33Max!
04:36It's nice to be consulted.
04:38Communication, teamwork to the fore there.
04:41Just felt we needed to move things along a bit.
04:43I wasn't trying to freeze you out.
04:45You've just managed to freeze out about half the staff room.
04:48The lazy and the cynical ones. I can live with that.
04:50You are bringing independent school ideas to a state comprehensive.
04:54We don't do things like that here, Max.
04:56I gathered that.
04:58Look, Grantly Budgin is going to be on the phone to his union right now.
05:01Yes, he is.
05:01And if we don't support it, how are you going to push it through?
05:04I've got the support of the governors.
05:06Things are going to change, ladies. Simple as that.
05:10So I see.
05:12Max, am I still headteacher?
05:16Well, that is just so people know where to find me.
05:21Good way to show how united we all are.
05:23Like I say, it's nice to be consulted.
05:26I've got a really good feeling about these changes, Rachel.
05:31How am I supposed to work with that?
05:43I don't care, Debbie. It's not even up to school.
05:45That's not what Miss Campbell said.
05:46I could have had the police round here last night.
05:48Oh, whatever.
05:53Siobhan, what are you doing here?
05:55So this is where you live?
05:57Was that your mum?
05:58No.
05:58Luke, what's wrong?
06:00There's nothing wrong. I live here, alright?
06:06I'm in care.
06:09That was Debbie. She's a manager.
06:11She's kind of like my guardian.
06:13Where's your mum and dad?
06:14Just leave it, yeah?
06:15I want to know what's going on.
06:16What's to know? I live in a care home.
06:18My mum couldn't look after me and my dad.
06:20I don't even know where he is.
06:21You said he works not all your rigs.
06:23Why didn't you tell me this?
06:24I don't have to tell anyone where I live.
06:28A proper home, like one of those hostels they put pedos in.
06:30No, it's for kids that you don't have a mum or a dad.
06:33Flying little...
06:34It's like one of them now.
06:36Yeah, right, Amy, it's not that big a deal.
06:38He's a scudder.
06:39Amy, you won't tell anyone, will you? Please.
06:42Shut up. You're out of it.
06:44I haven't finished with him.
06:47Who does Tyler think he is deciding on who can teach the top sets?
06:51Brantley, I thought you approved of Max's autocratic approach.
06:54Yeah, for them out there, but he can't do this to us.
06:57You know, I can't believe he's put up with mixed ability this long.
07:00How can you teach an A-star pupil in the same room as someone who can barely write their own
07:04name?
07:05Spot checks.
07:06Eh?
07:07On us, to see which sets we get. Here.
07:10No, no, that is intimidation.
07:12What happened to just trust in your teachers? All this he's saying is you lot are crap.
07:16Max Tyler doesn't suffer fools, incompetence, or lazy sods, Tom.
07:20And I reckon half of this lot won't be here in six months.
07:36Hi.
07:37Hi, Erin.
07:38OK, everyone.
07:39Welcome to the foreign languages refresher course.
07:42This way, please.
07:44Well, it's teaching, I suppose.
07:47Brilliant.
07:51Steph.
07:52Steph Haydock?
07:53Yeah?
07:53Sheila McKechnie.
07:54I'm a friend of Joe Lipsitz.
07:56Glad you could make it.
07:56Hi.
07:57Looking forward to it?
07:58Oh, can't wait.
08:00Joe said you were a kidder.
08:02I can see I shall have to keep my eye on you.
08:04What do you mean?
08:05Stay clear of the wine at lunch.
08:10What a test.
08:11What a test.
08:12What a test.
08:13What a test.
08:14What a test.
08:14Miss, you never said we've got a test.
08:16It's the same for everyone, Denzel.
08:18Well, it's from Mr. Tyler.
08:20Just try your best, OK?
08:23My mum says just read the questions carefully.
08:26I'm thick.
08:27Never gonna be in the same set as you.
08:29Listen.
08:31This test is to help us find you the right set.
08:35The one that works best for you.
08:37It's not about finding out who's thick or who's a swot.
08:42OK?
08:44You can start now.
09:08Sit down, Denzel.
09:14Well, I'm hoping that we can sort this out.
09:20Carla, it's all right.
09:22I never did anything to her.
09:23Just lying if she says I did.
09:25We heard a sort of problem.
09:26I never touched her.
09:35You did.
09:40You held me down and said that if I ever make your little sister cry again, you'd kill me.
09:52And then you wrote on my head.
09:59I'm not a freak.
10:06Emily, your sister was there.
10:07She saw everything.
10:12I don't think that Carla's making that up, Lindsay, because she's been too scared of coming to school.
10:17Now, I can go and get him and put her through the ordeal of lying for you, but I think
10:21it's time to tell the truth, don't you?
10:24Hmm?
10:26I've been in touch with Carla's mum.
10:29She wants my guarantee that nothing like this is going to happen again.
10:33So can I give her that assurance?
10:42Is that admission, Lindsay?
10:46Yes, miss.
10:51Sorry, Carla.
10:55Well, it does take guts to own up, doesn't it?
10:59But I'm still going to have to think up an appropriate punishment.
11:02You can chuck me out.
11:04I don't give up on people, Lindsay.
11:06How hard they push me.
11:08Hmm?
11:11How do you feel, Carla?
11:14I don't want any more trouble.
11:16I just want everyone to get on.
11:21It goes without saying that all this can't be achieved without an outstanding subject knowledge, which I'm sure you all
11:28have.
11:29As a matter of interest, how many of you feel confidently able to teach three languages?
11:35Two?
11:38One?
11:43Okay.
11:45Recognize this?
11:47It's a very common sight in MFL classrooms.
11:50I can tell you, death by vocab.
11:57Frankly, it is the entitlement of a head teacher to introduce structural changes.
12:02So it was your decision?
12:05No.
12:06No, Max decided that...
12:08Well, he...
12:09Frankly, I can't discuss this.
12:12Oh, look.
12:13Just who the hell is in charge here?
12:17You or him?
12:19Hmm?
12:21Oh, my area rep has just assured me of his full support.
12:26For what?
12:28I intend to request permission to ballot my membership with a view to possible industrial action.
12:34Industrial action?
12:36Mm-hmm.
12:36Oh, we can close this place down in five minutes.
12:39Puh.
12:39Will do.
12:40If he so much as sets one foot across any of my members' classrooms.
12:53Of course she's got it.
12:54How do you like to go now with a flipping artful Dodger?
12:56Well, shut up.
12:57Just because he ain't cared over me, he's a skank.
12:59Well, you know what a skank looks like.
13:01Oh, I didn't.
13:03Don't start.
13:07I can't believe you told everyone.
13:08I thought you were my mate.
13:11I am.
13:12The more people notice a surprise to you, the less of a chevette you look.
13:16Oh, it's all right, Luke, mate. My mum were a mess as well.
13:18So you told everyone?
13:19I told Amy.
13:21I'm sorry.
13:27Hey, don't worry about having only one language.
13:30I was the same when I started.
13:32Just flag it up at your performance review and you're away.
13:35We're desperate for Hispanists.
13:38Spanish specialists.
13:40Yeah, yeah, I know what they are.
13:43Right, well, I'll take it up with my line manager.
13:47Oh, you'll enjoy this next session.
13:49That's our native French speaker.
13:51She'll be putting us all through her paces.
13:53It's months and times in France.
13:54Yeah.
13:56Bonjour. Comment allez-vous?
13:58Comment ça a été votre voyage?
14:00Merci beaucoup d'être venuée.
14:05Steph!
14:07Just nip into the loo.
14:09Two minutes.
14:20Good to see the kids outside getting stuck in.
14:23Yeah, it's really good when people work together, isn't it?
14:27Have you apologised to Rachel yet?
14:31I like to get things done.
14:33Sometimes that shocks people.
14:35She'll come round.
14:36No.
14:37Max, you've just undermined her in front of the whole staff room.
14:40Never mind.
14:41Putting me in an impossible situation.
14:43Kim.
14:44No, I didn't appreciate it.
14:54Luke.
14:55I'm dead sorry.
14:57I just needed someone to talk to.
14:58So what did you say?
15:00Did you tell her that it didn't make a difference
15:02and it doesn't change how you feel about me?
15:04No, but it doesn't.
15:07You're having a go at me like I was the one taking the mick off.
15:10Oh, I'm sorry.
15:11Did I miss the part where you told her to shut up?
15:13Or were you just about to tell that spiteful, stuck-up little cow to keep her nose out?
15:18Probably for the best.
15:20You don't think Siobhan's mum and dad would let her go out with someone like you?
15:24Luke!
15:25Why did you do that?
15:26He's wrecked my work!
15:28Cooler.
15:29Now!
15:30That took me ages.
15:32Plan B.
15:34Just give him time to calm down, right?
15:36Yeah.
15:37Maybe he might respond to me.
15:39Now role model and all that.
15:45Right.
15:47Tyler walks into any lesson uninvited and we walk out, simple as.
15:53Why should a head teacher not have the right to check what's been taught in his school?
15:58His school?
15:59You're all the same, you lot.
16:01Like a bunch of nodding dogs.
16:03Yes, Max.
16:03No, Max.
16:04Three bags flaming.
16:05Fool, Max.
16:06He says he wants outstanding teachers.
16:10Huh?
16:10Just vacuous enthusiasm.
16:11It's easy to be enthusiastic when you've got a bunch of bright kids.
16:15Hello?
16:16Oh, hi, Sheila.
16:19No.
16:20No, she hasn't contacted me.
16:23What time does she leave?
16:26Really?
16:27Okay.
16:28No, no.
16:29There's not a problem.
16:30No, honestly, I'm really glad that you called me.
16:32Trust me.
16:33Okay, thank you.
16:33This cannot be sorted out.
16:35You all right?
16:36Er...
16:37Yeah, I've just got to check on something.
16:39See you later.
16:49Mason's letting her off.
16:51What?
16:51What?
16:52No way.
16:53If we'd have done that to Carla, Mason would have had us arse first out of here.
16:56Exactly.
16:57So if Mason isn't going to do it, we'll do it for her.
17:00Lindsay James needs to learn that if she goes against one of us, she gets it back.
17:04Ten times worse.
17:06But we'll get done if we do it in school.
17:08So we don't do it in school.
17:09We wait till she's on her way home.
17:12I can't wait to wipe that smoke off her face.
17:16Right.
17:17I'll see you later.
17:18And don't say a word.
17:19What?
17:21Come on, Simon.
17:26The situation is quite straightforward.
17:28You do something wrong and there are consequences of that action.
17:31Yes?
17:31That didn't mean-
17:32I'm talking, you're listening.
17:36It's more like it.
17:37Simple.
17:39I say it, you do it.
17:40I'll look behind you.
17:44I'm going to give you three simple tasks.
17:46Starting with a spot of litter picking.
17:49You can start in the canteen and make your way outside.
17:55You forgot the bib.
17:56I don't need a bib.
17:57It's non-negotiable, Luke.
18:08I'll be down to check on you shortly.
18:27I won't go.
18:28It's not nice.
18:28It's tranling where I take the same plane from you.
18:32Now hold out.
18:33But one more, let me say.road
18:34efficiency is in the game. So
18:35do this. Find
18:36the... ...it's
18:36cam. Delighting
18:40where I'm able to manage your home. Jumping,
18:41Hello, Steph.
18:43Joe!
18:45How did I know you were here?
18:47Oh, well, I guess.
18:50Come in.
18:58Funnily enough, I was just about to ring you.
19:01I had to, um, I had to leave the course because I wasn't well.
19:05I've been sick three times.
19:08Something smells really good.
19:09Yeah, yeah, I'm just cooking something to settle my stomach.
19:13Do you want to cut the crap, Steph?
19:16You walked out.
19:17Sheila called me.
19:20I can't actually believe you.
19:23After everything that happened last week.
19:25It was a waste of flaming time.
19:28That Sheila McKillabody woman, whatever you call her, she doesn't have a clue.
19:33Well, that Sheila McKechnie was the head of her department and AST by the time she was 24, Steph.
19:39You know, if Max Tyler had his way, you'd be out of a job.
19:42And if he finds out about this, you really will be.
19:44I couldn't face it.
19:46All those geeky, swatty types.
19:48It's just not me.
19:50Well, it's going to have to be because I am not having a female Grantley Budgin in my department.
19:54No way.
19:57Do you want a glass of wine?
19:59A cup of tea.
20:00I'll make you a cup of tea.
20:01No.
20:02Because you're not stopping.
20:03Go get changed.
20:05I'll tell Sheila you're on the way.
20:06Go on.
20:09Miss.
20:11You've got to take any rubbish round to recycling.
20:14Yeah, OK.
20:15Erm, somewhere over there.
20:19What is he playing at?
20:21Cram.
20:21Er, it's a snake.
20:23It's all right, thank you.
20:25Showing him who's boss, I guess.
20:27Humiliating him, more like.
20:29Can you give us five minutes?
20:30Yeah, no problem.
20:31Look, maybe I can tell Miss Campbell that Amy round you up.
20:34I don't care what Campbell thinks of me.
20:36You're the one that didn't tell anyone, Luke.
20:38Why are you angry at me when you're the one that's embarrassed?
20:41Well, I'm not.
20:41So that's why he lied to me for six months, is it?
20:44Making up stories about why I couldn't come round.
20:47Making me feel like maybe I wasn't good enough.
20:51You're full of crap.
20:53Blaming me is just easier than admitting.
20:55You're well shamed about home.
21:02Wester.
21:03Stay, Pendle.
21:05Can't buy.
21:06Loser.
21:09That's really good work.
21:11Well done, well done.
21:13Steph.
21:14Hi, Sheila.
21:16Um, sorry for disappearing like that.
21:20Oh, not a problem.
21:21Any bargains to be had on the shopping channel?
21:29Do you know that half of all children in care leave school with no GCSEs?
21:3513% get five passes.
21:38Are you going to be like that, Luke?
21:39Or are you going to be part of the 40% of prisoners who have spent time in care?
21:44It's your decision.
21:47You missed a bit.
21:54Water needs changing.
21:55What?
21:55Come on, move it.
21:57I'm doing it.
21:58Yeah, not quick enough.
21:59I said I'm doing it.
22:00Don't you ever speak to me like that again.
22:04Now get it changed.
22:10Hey, Luke!
22:12Get back here!
22:14Get back here!
22:15Get back here!
22:17To Mr. Max's time, we, the undersigned, protest in the strongest possible terms at the consultation
22:25without a walk or a professional organising trust.
22:44Somebody pass me the hammer?
22:49Thanks.
22:52You know, it must be hard living in care.
22:54Have you tried asking him about it?
22:56I tried.
22:57He thinks I'm embarrassed of him.
22:59Try again, just to make sure she's not listening to me.
23:03Right, everyone, come on, let's get everything done now.
23:05We want to get finished up.
23:07Do you want to grab a sandwich and meet me in my room?
23:09Nah, I had some air break.
23:13Is it that much of a shock to you, finding out about me?
23:17That's actually really messed things up for you.
23:20It was a shock.
23:21Yeah.
23:22I must have known I'd find you one day.
23:25Well, no, I didn't.
23:28The first I knew about you was three weeks ago.
23:30Yeah, right.
23:31It's the truth.
23:32I'm sure your mum had her reasons for not telling you, but...
23:35Look, I didn't even know she was pregnant.
23:37So what are you saying?
23:39My mum's been lying to me for, like, all my life.
23:42I'm telling you the truth.
23:44Yeah, your truth.
23:45You run away from the truth.
23:47That's why you walked off from mum the other day.
23:49And that's why you haven't had the guts to speak to me till today.
23:51Look, Josh, I just didn't want to be the one to tell you.
23:55It's up to you whether you believe me or not.
23:56Yeah, well, I don't.
23:58You know what?
23:58I thought it'd be mint having a dad.
24:00But you're just full of crap.
24:02Just leave me alone, yeah?
24:07Yeah, well, he could be anywhere.
24:09Better let Kim know.
24:11So much for executive control, huh?
24:15That's...
24:17That's my car.
24:18That's my car!
24:19That's...
24:20That way!
24:24This is my life.
24:25Do you want to see it?
24:27Everyone can find out about me now.
24:31Come on, is this what you want?
24:32Is this what you want?
24:33Feed me!
24:35Don't leave me alone!
24:40You don't know about me!
24:46Get back inside!
24:49You don't know about me!
24:51Come on, is this what you want?
24:53Is this what you want?
24:55Is this what you want?
24:57Dear God, that is like a wild west.
25:11Case files, how the hell did...
25:13Come on!
25:26Do you want a ride, Max?
25:32Everybody, stay away from the wall!
25:36Go!
25:41Please!
25:43Please!
25:47Stop, Max!
25:48Stop!
25:59You stupid gentlemen, you're going to tilt to one. Come here. You. I'm going to make sure they lock you
26:06up and throw away the kid.
26:07Don't care what you do to me. Max. Leave him alone. Let go of him. You. Okay, everyone, back inside,
26:13please. Girls, inside, I said.
26:16As MFL teachers, we all know how difficult it is to motivate boys. Like teaching turtles how to run.
26:24Absolutely. But what's the one thing they respond to? Well, it's not forming reflexive verbs.
26:29I agree, Steph, but we've got to teach them. The question is, can we do it in an exciting way?
26:36But are we here to teach them or to entertain them? Be good if we could do both.
26:40I've only known boys respond to two things, and I'm sorry, boys, but that's sex and football, or in fact,
26:46any game that involves winning.
26:48Spot on, Steph. The boys are very competitive. You are absolutely right, Steph. It's why they do better in maths
26:55and science.
26:56These are in your games packs.
27:03Enough to keep them going for weeks in here. Takes their mind off the other thing as well.
27:09Thanks.
27:12Another nail in the coffin.
27:15Why the hell I ever came here? I don't know. Why'd Max ever came here?
27:19Yes, I think we've all seen the chaos that will rain down if he gets his way.
27:24You're wasting your time, grant me, my love, because Max Tyler bends to no man, and believe me, I know.
27:29I've known him for ten years.
27:31I think you'll find that your friend Max is facing a far less servile collective than the one he was
27:38used to in the private sector.
27:40You're going to have Foster's kids on one side and Waterloo Road on the other.
27:43I mean, if you've got kids of your own, don't you want the best for them? You want them to
27:47be in the top flight.
27:48What I do know is Max's plans will be a right kick in the teeth to the likes of Denzel
27:52Kelly.
27:53Yeah, and the top set's great if you're in it, but what does it do for the self-esteem of
27:56the others?
27:57I think we should focus our resources on all of the kids, irrespective of their abilities.
28:02Hmm.
28:03Well, I'm surprised at you, Joe. I didn't think you'd be siding with Scargill here.
28:07I'm on the side of what's best for the kids, Ruby.
28:10Oh, absolutely. It's they who are important here.
28:16Dead right, Grantley.
28:19Think about what you're doing, Joe.
28:21She's a big girl.
28:24Joe.
28:31A majority.
28:32And now all we need is a delegation.
28:44Here we go.
28:46I think that's most of them.
28:51Chris.
28:53Look, can you take Luke out for a second, please?
28:59Come on.
29:00Stay with him.
29:06I'm calling the police.
29:07Max, hang on. Just calm down, all right? Nobody got hurt.
29:10Oh, yeah, you're forgetting that he nearly killed you.
29:11No, please, please, for me.
29:13All right? Let's just deal with this on our own.
29:16It doesn't need any more discipline.
29:19It just needs a little bit of TLC.
29:26Max.
29:30This is Max Tyler, Waterloo Road Executive Head.
29:34I'd like to report a serious incident.
29:38Yes, please.
29:45Not as bad as you expected, eh?
29:49Well, I've, um, learned a couple of new tricks.
29:52You lack confidence.
29:54And, dare I say it, you're stuck in your ways.
29:58The truth is more valuable, if it takes a few years to find it.
30:10Perfect.
30:18Why, love?
30:19Why did you do it?
30:21I don't know.
30:23I just lost it.
30:27Police are on their way.
30:29I'm going to hand this over to them.
30:30What'll happen to him?
30:32He'll end up with a criminal record.
30:33And if he does, it'll be what he deserves.
30:39Luke, why don't you, uh, why don't you tell Mr. Tyler why you ended up in care?
30:44It's okay.
30:46When my dad left my mum and started his new family, she just couldn't look after us anymore.
30:54Right, and what age were you?
30:56I was six.
30:58Six.
31:00Maybe, um, this will be the shock he needs.
31:06Absolutely, it will.
31:10What's the point?
31:15Loin's girded, everyone.
31:16Kim.
31:20Ah.
31:22Pending approval from the union, our commitment to meeting intimidation and threats with an immediate walkout.
31:30Don't you know what you're doing?
31:33That's exactly what I was going to ask you.
31:36Majority of the staff have signed.
31:39Yes, including some from your old establishment.
31:44When you've had a look, I suggest we sit down and discuss this properly.
31:58Now, Budgeon's pre-Cambrian.
32:00Surprised that Tom Clarkson and even Joe Lipset signed it.
32:03This is just some kind of power thing, isn't it?
32:06It's always about power when you're trying to reform a place like this.
32:09And you're using a young, vulnerable boy to show how tough you can be.
32:17Personal attacks.
32:18I thought they'd come.
32:21You're beginning to annoy me, Kim.
32:23Yeah, advice from colleagues does annoy you.
32:25I had noticed.
32:26When the advice is to dish out tender loving care to kids who clearly need a kick up the backside,
32:30that annoys me.
32:31I'm really glad that you value me professional opinion.
32:33I do value your professional opinion, Kim.
32:36Do you know what?
32:36There's a signature missing, Kim.
32:37Kim, why are you taking this so personally?
32:39Do you know he hasn't told anybody that is in care?
32:42Not even his girlfriend.
32:43Oh, Max, you can roll your eyes at me as much as you want, but do you know what?
32:47You've failed him.
32:48It is your responsibility to make sure that kids like Luke stay out of the system and all you've done
32:53is threaten him and humiliate him.
32:56And then now what?
32:57You're going to get him thrown into a cell?
33:01Let me give you some professional advice.
33:04Unless you get to grips with the pastoral issues in this school, you can kiss all your little reforms goodbye.
33:10Idiot.
33:11No.
33:41Thank you for coming, Max Tyler.
33:43Look, could you give me five minutes?
33:47Sure.
33:57Police will be in here shortly to charge you.
34:01Can you think of one good reason why that shouldn't happen?
34:04No, sir.
34:07Miss Campbell thinks I should give you a second chance.
34:10Is she right?
34:12She's all right, Miss Campbell.
34:15Yes, she is.
34:19Thing is, Luke, when you leave here in two years' time, as Campbell doesn't leave with you, you have to
34:24stand on your own two feet.
34:31What I did today was try to make you realise that in life, bad things happen.
34:38You have to be ready, which means ready to accept authority.
34:43So things just went a bit...
34:45I fell out with my girlfriend and everyone was having a go at me.
34:48Yes, I heard about that.
34:56Don't ever be ashamed of your background, Luke.
35:02Just work hard, so it's not an issue.
35:07It's what I did.
35:13When you came to John Foster's, I was delighted.
35:19I said, now there's a lad with the brains to really achieve something in life.
35:25You do want to achieve something.
35:29University.
35:30Career.
35:33Definitely.
35:34I want to be a lawyer.
35:36Good.
35:41But you won't get there if you can't show respect for the people in charge.
35:47And in this place, that's me.
35:58I'm going to inform the police that we'll be handling this incident.
36:03Giving you a second chance.
36:06Final chance.
36:09The only thing will be on you from now.
36:13Do you think you can handle it?
36:15I can, sir, yeah.
36:20Best decision you've made all day.
36:27Sir.
36:34Well, do you think she'll have a gang with her?
36:37She's not going to know what's hit her.
36:38Are you two talking about Lindsay?
36:41I don't want any more trouble.
36:42I told Miss Mason that.
36:44Well, don't worry, Carly.
36:45You won't have any more trouble for Lindsay.
36:47That means you're going to give her trouble.
36:50Miss Mason sorted everything out.
36:51Lindsay apologised.
36:52She's going to be apologising all over the pavement once we've finished with her.
36:56What are you going to do?
36:58We're going to kick her head in on the way home.
37:02We're doing it for you, Carla.
37:10Well, I'm sure Max will see you off the rebels.
37:13Oh, don't underestimate Grant, he's crafty.
37:16Is that a sneaking admiration I can hear?
37:20Hey, Carla, what's up?
37:21It's Michaela White, miss.
37:23Oh, she's not having a go-to as well, is she?
37:24No, Michaela's going to kick Lindsay's head in.
37:27They're going to get her on her way home.
37:28Have you got your car keys?
37:30Yeah.
37:31OK, Carla, you've done the right thing.
37:32Don't worry.
37:33Should I let Max know?
37:35That's up to you, Chris.
37:39Come on.
37:44Oh, Siobhan, cheer up.
37:46I'm not going to lock Luke up.
37:48She's in a mood because I've been having a go at him.
37:50You're with us now.
37:51We're more important than some poxy laugh.
37:53Yeah.
37:54Look, anyone gives you any grief tomorrow, you just let me know, yeah?
37:57Part of the crew.
37:59What did Miss Mason say about you and Carla?
38:02Shut up, Em.
38:03Sorted.
38:04I said I'm sorry and that's it.
38:06Just do a nosy little cow.
38:15Come in.
38:16Sean and that slag Amy with her as well.
38:19And her little sister.
38:20Right, get back, hide.
38:21Right, don't go to what I say, go.
38:23We're not going to hurt her little sister now, are we?
38:25It's Lindsay after no one else.
38:33Oh, we must have missed him.
38:35Look, Wilton Street's up there.
38:36Should we try it anyway?
38:37This is unreal.
38:38When did girls get like this?
38:44You out tonight, chef?
38:45No, I'm going to Luke's.
38:47What, do you want to go to that skank house for?
38:49I thought you finished with him.
38:50I never said that.
38:52You did.
38:53You'd be doing all the talking today and look what happened.
38:56I couldn't think for myself, Amy.
38:59You all right, Linds?
39:02You having a nice time with your little mates?
39:07So you need all of yours.
39:09Dad brave here.
39:10Huh.
39:11Coming from someone who beats up special needs kids.
39:14You don't have special needs if you touch me.
39:15Leave her alone.
39:16Get out.
39:16You don't touch her and you're dead.
39:18You think you can do one of ours and get away with it?
39:20No chance.
39:21This is for Carla.
39:23This is for me.
39:25Lindsie!
39:26Leave us alone.
39:28Come on, we're going.
39:46Lindsie!
39:47That is enough.
39:57That is enough, all of you.
39:59What are you doing?
40:00What do you call this, girls, eh?
40:02The law of the jungle?
40:03Retribution dresser was loyalty, Michaela.
40:07Right.
40:08This stops now.
40:10Get home, the lot of you.
40:12Move.
40:13Go on, all of you.
40:14Get home.
40:15Now.
40:16This is not finished.
40:17Do you understand?
40:18Yes, it is.
40:19Get off me.
40:19Yes, it is.
40:20Finished.
40:21Oh, you are.
40:22No exams.
40:23No future.
40:24I will kick you out of Waterloo Road before you can blink.
40:29I think that's funny.
40:31Try me.
40:51I thought you were going to kill her.
40:58do you want one very contrite young man to see you.
41:04Hey, miss.
41:06I'm sorry about the garden and everything.
41:08What's happened?
41:10I took your advice.
41:13We're going to deal with this in-house.
41:15Less rules, more responsibilities.
41:18He's not getting away scot-free.
41:19We're still going to keep him behind for the next two or three weeks.
41:23Thank you, Max.
41:25See you later.
41:25See you.
41:34Pastoral approach is the only way we're going to get through to that, Max.
41:39I'm saying you were right, Kim.
41:48Hiya.
41:52I wasn't sure you'd turn up.
41:54Thanks for seeing me.
41:58Everything all right with your mum?
42:00No.
42:02She's tried to tell me she did it for all the right reasons.
42:07I can't see a reason to lie like that.
42:12She's looked after you all your life.
42:15Maybe she was worried I was someone that didn't care you existed.
42:20Don't change anything, you know.
42:22You being this great guy, I'm still nothing to you.
42:26Come on.
42:28Look, I'd have run a mile if you were nothing to me.
42:31Isn't that what you did?
42:35I'm here now.
42:38I don't mean to be funny or anything, but I'm a little bit disappointed.
42:44It's just...
42:45For years I've thought about you.
42:47What you're going to be like.
42:49Are you rich?
42:50Do you have a posh car?
42:52You was like this imaginary hero to me.
42:56Super teacher.
42:58I just went and let my mum.
43:01She said you don't want to shut me up, I think.
43:05So...
43:05I just thought you must be a scumbag.
43:08I know you're not.
43:12Listen, I...
43:13I think we should move away from blaming your mum.
43:18I want to try and...
43:20have a sort of relationship.
43:23If that's what you want.
43:32For next Saturday.
43:34I thought we could go.
43:36I don't like football.
43:39Right.
43:40No problem.
43:42Sorry, I...
43:43I thought you might...
43:45You thought what?
43:46That maybe we could do the whole father and son gig?
43:49You don't know me.
43:52Yeah, you're right.
43:54I don't.
43:57But I'm trying.
43:59I want to get to know you.
44:01Why?
44:03You're not making this easy, are you?
44:07I don't know why.
44:09I know that without me, you wouldn't be living and breathing.
44:13Being a pain in the backside.
44:15Is that enough?
44:20Who's playing?
44:26I can handle you not liking football.
44:29At least you're not a United fan.
44:34Glory, glory, man, United.
44:40Who's a comedian?
44:42I made a mistake, and I tried to put it right.
44:45Yeah, but do you know what?
44:46You should have just trusted and respected my opinion in the first place.
44:50Yes.
44:53But if you want to close the doors, I must...
44:55No, I don't want to close the door on us.
44:59You've just got a lot of grovelling to do.
45:02I can do grovelling.
45:13Hi.
45:14Hiya.
45:15Max has decided to let Luke off.
45:18He's not getting the police involved.
45:20All right.
45:21That's a good decision.
45:22Yes, yes, easy one, really.
45:25He's too good a student to risk losing.
45:27Chris, I was looking for you earlier.
45:29Yeah, I had to help Rachel.
45:31Lindsay James and Michaela White had a fight outside school.
45:34What?
45:35Is anyone hurt?
45:36No, they're not.
45:36But it confirms my fear we've got a serious gang problem here,
45:40and Michaela and Lindsay are right at the head of it.
45:42We need to sort this as quickly as possible.
45:43Absolutely right.
45:44Needs all our attention.
45:46I think that if we can, you know, unite, we can put a stop to it.
45:50Absolutely.
45:52So what about the petition?
45:55I think we could set up a little arbitration service.
45:58Really?
45:59You're willing to make a compromise?
46:01Not on delivering quality teaching, no.
46:03Well, I think we can support that.
46:04As long as it is a collaboration with the staff, not spying on them.
46:09Yes, if the sets are all in place, I'm sure that even the less-able teachers will do better.
46:16Okay, I'm going to go and get rid of me willis and stuff.
46:19See you in a minute.
46:22Rachel, thank you.
46:23Huh?
46:24For going to help sort that out.
46:26Right.
46:27No, I just think the girls needed a reminder of who's in charge.
46:33Maybe we could kick around a few ideas, form a strategy.
46:38I think we need to have a new regime of trust and openness.
46:43Absolutely.
46:54That's lovely.
46:55Yes, I know.
46:58Go and check it, Jane.
47:04I told her you need to bog off.
47:06Yeah.
47:07Thanks.
47:10I didn't know you could try.
47:11No, I can't.
47:14So, what's going to happen to you?
47:15Mr Tyler's giving him a second chance.
47:17His head's down and graft.
47:19No more sleepovers.
47:20Staying out past ten.
47:22You understand?
47:24I thought they were going to kick you out.
47:26Nah, it just means Tyler's going to be on my case, but I'll be all right.
47:32Look, I'm sorry that I lied.
47:35I mean, I'm just glad it's out now.
47:38It'll just be a big relief not having to look both ways every time I leave this place.
47:42Look, do you want to stay for tea?
47:44It's okay, I'd better get back.
47:46Look, it'll be all right, please.
47:49Yeah, okay.
47:50It'll be all right.
47:50Let's get back.
