Series Summary
This four-part series features 16 underachieving and extremely challenging 13-year-olds, who have been labelled as 'disaffected' by the state education system. These apparently 'unteachable' kids are either completely disengaged or so abusive and disruptive in school that permanent exclusion is inevitable.
In this groundbreaking project, four leading teachers try to turn around these bottom-of-the-class kids, and inspire them to become hard-working pupils with a future.
