Bad Education, written by & starring Jack Whitehall, follows Alfie Wickers the worst teacher to ever (dis)grace the British Education System, & a bigger kid than the pupils he teaches. Abbey Grove school is populated by some of the weirdest teachers you could ever meet: Fraser the hair-brained Headmaster who longs to be down with the kids, Miss Gulliver the biology teacher with a heart of gold but perhaps a dash too much openness & honesty, Miss Mollinson the happily swinging Head of Maths who won't let her hip replacement get in the way & Deputy Headmistress Miss Pickwell who displays all the charm & sensitivity of a Third Reich Dominatrix. Alfie's class is Form K, a bunch of misfits that have been written off by the rest of the school, but Alfie can't help but see a bit of himself in them. This is about a class of kids & their teacher's quest to get through life & get the best results with the minimum amount of effort possible. Sadly it's not an equation that always adds up. From a disastrous parents' evening to cringe-worthy sex-education lessons to life threatening self-defence classes to school elections full of dirty tricks & a school trip to see a rhino pig; Bad Education is school life as you've never seen it before. Bad Education: The Teachers' Handbook is filled with hilarious content from both the first & upcoming second series from pupils' report cards & the graffiti found in the staff toilets, to Alfie's teaching methods & the best ways to scam a free laptop from the government. ...
