- Description
- Although it has to deal with a wide range of behavioural problems, the Bridge Academy in West London, one of the country’s largest alternative provision academies, still expects each student to get a minimum of 5 GCSEs. The stakes could not be higher. As exams approach and tensions mount, the children’s behaviour starts to go downhill.
In the third and last programme in the series we follow 16-year-old Thomas, who hates school and learning. He lives for football, and wants to be a football coach, but will the school be able to keep him in a lesson for more than 5 minutes?
Meanwhile for 16-year-old Michael, passing his GCSEs would mean being able to go to college to pursue his love of animals, but will his fear of leaving the school sabotage his future? - Genre
- Social Work; Education; Health and Social Care
