What happens

Educating Yorkshire was the title of the second series of the British documentary television programme Educating... broadcast on Channel 4. The eight-episode series was first broadcast on 5 September 2013. Its format is based on the BAFTA Award-winning 2011 series Educating Essex. It follows the everyday lives of the staff and pupils of Thornhill Community Academy, a secondary school in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire. A Christmas special entitled Educating Yorkshire at Christmas was aired on 19 December 2013. An episode titled Educating Yorkshire: One Year On was broadcast on 21 August 2014. This episode concentrated on some of the key pupils that the audience met throughout the original series, showing what had been going on in their lives over the past year. The show also included previous year 10 (now year 11) pupils opening their summer 2014 GCSE results. On 19 July 2024, Channel 4 announced that there would be a new series of Educating Yorkshire, to be shown in 2025. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
