The Educating Series

Anybody watched the Educating series including Educating Essex, Education Yorkshire, Educating The East End, Educating Cardiff and Educating Greater Manchester? I've seen all of these and I find them very insightful from a sociological standpoint.

I find they all showcase the flaws of the education system despite the best efforts of the staff. Some of the students I feel sorry for, and it's clear personal circumstances impact their academic performances-usually the solutions to them acting up is to hand out detentions and isolations though-like that's supposed to be some kind of antidote to their ills.

What are your thoughts if you seen these series' before?
I BARELY watched an episode of one of those
I think it was Manchester

I LOVE these types of shows
Since you LOVE it so much
I will add this to my summer watching list
TYSMM for voicing ur opinion:smile: :smile: :smile: ( omg I can FRR make emoji's out of the colon and the closing bracket ( mind blowing) ) ( I'm just new so don't mind me)
Also would you please rank these in order or best to least best ( I would RLLY appreciate it as I can avoid mediocre adaptions, esp considering that this is my first time watching so u wouldn't want me to have a bad impression abt the show)

Also, have u watched Our School ( I am asking since they are both relate to education)?
It's this show abt kids going into Secondary school ( I watched it when I was going into secondary school myself)
I LOVED the 2013 version the most and watched ALL of it

I know there are MORE recent episodes but frr they were the MOST likeable and authentic bunch with SUCH good vibes that can't be replicated anywhere

I wonder if there is a subbreddit for these shows ( it would be SO COOL if there was)

NOTE: I LOVE stuff abt the educational system like smm and I even wrote a short essay abt how standardised testing is BAD

Also if u want to get to know me better
feel free to PM me

I sent you a PM but I'll respond here as well.

I haven't watched Our School-is it just as good as the Educating documentaries?

I think if you watch the 2013 edition it'd have been Educating Yorkshire-would I be right about that?

this is
they go to conyers and NO I COULDNT find a 2013 version for Educating Yorkshire in yt but I will do a Google Search to test ur idea

as u are aware I HAVEN'T watched The Educating documentaries so I LEGIT have no clue and can't compare fairly
Ig u will have to answer that question yourself
or I will be able to answer that question for you in the summer holidays ( when I watch all the educating series and this one ( but MAINLY I will try to compare Yorkshire with our school 2013 ( cuz u are suggesting they are apples to oranges))
