I love the show!

But I was a little disappointed at the end. They seemed to show only the kids that did badly, and then compare thier marks to the GCSE equivelent.

Why not show more about the brighter kids and the marks they got?

It almost seemed to me that C4 wanted to portray O-levels > GCSE no matter what other evidence they might have gained from the experiment.

Overall a great show, but they did seem to focus more on the 'wrong-uns'. Which seemed a little unfair to the well behaved kids who I pressume we only ever saw in the background while Vicki (for instance) got told off again!

Very much so, Roztov.

They did say that the girls (when put together) only achieved thirteen O Level passes IN TOTAL. Suggests there weren't really many high-fliers in the group, if any.

Yes-would it be possible to have a Big Brother-like continuous screening,so we could watch a whole lesson,for instance?I'd also like to see us being able to send mail to individual teachers and pupils and get replies e.g. why was the singing master so uptight, why was Miss Gibson so snappish,and would Matron care to justify her unfeeling description of Vicky as a "lovesick hussy"?

I think that in announcing the exam results in this way, the show lost all credibility. As I've said elsewhere, these people, in my opinion, were "used".
