    Premise

    The show follows the lives of the teachers and the pupils at the eponymous school of Waterloo Road, a failing inner-city comprehensive, tackling a wide range of issues often seen as taboo such as drink driving, underage driving, bullying, homosexuality, marital problems, exclusion, teenage pregnancy, death, sexual harassment, mental illness and suicide.

    Plot

    The first series focused on the new Headmaster Jack Rimmer's (Jason Merrells) attempts to keep the school of Waterloo Road open, following the school being threatened with closure by the LEA, owing to falling pupil numbers, bad behaviour and the bad publicity the school had been receiving following the previous Headmaster's mental breakdown. In order to improve things around the school, Jack Rimmer employs enthusiastic Andrew Treneman (Jamie Glover) as Deputy Head. However, Andrew struggles to connect with both the staff and the pupils at first, having come from a more successful upper class school and background.
