The last series saw former headteacher Steve Savage (Jason Manford) and his son Billy arrested after year 11 pupil Boz Osborne was found dead.
The ex-Ofsted director is attempting to restore law and order and rebuild the reputation of Waterloo Road, which is currently tarnished as the ‘murder school’.
And Jared Jones attempts to win the favour of his history teacher to keep him sweet on his new relationship with girlfriend Libby Guthrie.

“But pretty much every room in the building is used.
