Jonathan Hall's comedy drama about a Salford secondary school starring Julie Hesmondhalgh.
Yvette is convinced that, wherever possible, kids should stay in school. But transfer pupil Logan is testing those limits. Exclusion is not an easy decision, and Logan's keyboard-warrior father complicates the process. As tensions rise, a late-night confrontation uncovers a pivotal truth.
