History Series / BadEducation

* CoveredInGunge: In "Trailblazer", Inchez, Harrison and Indigo get covered in chicken satay after [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext Hoburn uses her shoe to take down Mitchell and Blessing's drone takeaway delivery service]]. [[{{Bathos}} Indigo unfortunately turns out to have a nut allergy, meaning that the "splashback" results in her having to be rushed to hospital]].

* HilarityEnsues: Frequently.

* BecomingTheMask: Rosie ends up [[TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask transforming]] into Pickwell ([[BriefAccentImitation including the Scottish accent]]) when she becomes deputy headmistress, [[spoiler: after Pickwell's "supposed" death]]. She snaps out of it at the [[StatusQuoIsGod end of the episode]].

''Film/TheBadEducationMovie'' was released in August 2015, which has nothing to do with Creator/PedroAlmodovar's film ''Film/BadEducation2004'' or the Creator/{{HBO}} biopic ''Film/BadEducation2019''. In 2022, it was announced that the series would return for a reunion special at the end of the year, to be followed by a revival series, in which two of Alfie's former students, Stephen and Mitchell, follow in his footsteps and become teachers at Abbey Grove, contending with a new class of students, strict new headmistress Bernadette Hoburn (Vicki Pepperdine) and Fraser, who's been demoted to being the school cook.

* AssShove: One of the many moments where Alfie's dad embarrasses him implies that he (Alfie) [[HoYay did this]] to [[TheGhost Atticus Hoy]] with [[NoodleImplements a set of Pogs]].

* TheGhost: Alfie's old schoolfriend Atticus Hoy who he is mentioned to have had a number of gay experiences with.

* OneOfTheKids: Alfie is this in relation to his class. He gets bullied by some students and even [[TeacherStudentRomance gets constantly propositioned by another.]] The first episode even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] it by not revealing that he is actually a teacher until the end of the cold open.

* RippedFromTheHeadlines: InUniverse, in "Whodunnit", Stephen decides to work out which one of his class told Hoburn he was planning on taking them out for a school trip to his audition by planting false rumours and seeing which of them get spread around, a tactic which, as he describes, famously used by tabloid celebrity Coleen Rooney to unmask fellow tabloid figure Rebekah Vardy as the friend who was selling stories about her to the press. [[spoiler:It doesn't work, ''all'' of the false rumours get spread around the school - despite them including [[RefugeInAudacity that Hoburn uses body doubles and that Mrs. Mollinson had ''died'' ]] - and the person who did tell Hoburn wasn't even one of his class, it was Mitchell]].

* EmbarrassingFirstName: Fraser claims his first name is "Simon". It's actually "''Shaquelle''".

* CruelAndUnusualPunishment: In "Prison", Mitchell and Fraser force [[spoiler:two men who tried to rob Abbey Grove]] to eat at least ''eight buckets'' of Fraser's disgusting laxative-inducing "poolibaisse".

* RunForTheBorder: [[spoiler: Pickwell at the end of ''The Funeral''.]]
