The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Not gonna say much as I'm in a rush, but I'm a big fan of this show! The acting is great, the concept is very original, and the character development is very good. Exceptional acting from the adults in the teacher roles, and I'm a big fan of Nasreen's mom

Although the first season came out a year ago and i can't remember for the life of me what happened, it was a good show hi-lighting important issues and events in today's society, not only has the show done this well, they've also made it entertaining to watch and it a new fresh tv show for british television. Can't wait for the second season

I admit I have watched only half of the first episode. It is still too much. I want to turn off TV and forget it even exists. Maybe that was the point. To show what's wrong with the world today. Well now I know. I also knew before, so nothing's changed there.English education is dead. English morals are dead. English teenagers are very much alive, but their brains are also dead. Wait, maybe this was about zombies and I didn't notice? The acting, the story - I guess they are not so bad. I don't know, I couldn't really shake of the disgust. Because deep down I believe this is how many - perhaps most - schools look like these days.I say, if education is to look like this, have the guts to finally make it not obligatory. At least our civilization with die with some dignity.

A bit Mean Girls, Waterloo Road, Teachers. Secondary school drama that seems realer than most about modern Britain, though all the main characters, those with the most interesting, meatiest arcs in the first episode were the white characters, not that unlike Indian Summers, another recent Channel 4 series ostensibly setting out to create a 'balanced', evenly split portrayal of its racially divided milieu. I wonder if this will change in episode 2 or if this is simply how it is going to stay for the entire series...
