This week, in Our School...

0:00:030:00:06

-Ow!

-..one boy tries to conquer his biggest fears.

0:00:060:00:11

No, no!

0:00:110:00:13

-I dare you.

-No, no! No!

0:00:130:00:16

Don't try and scare me!

0:00:160:00:18

MUFFLED SCREAMS

0:00:180:00:20

Will he be victorious?

0:00:200:00:23

-No, no.

-Find out in Our School.

0:00:230:00:28

BELL RINGS

0:00:280:00:30

Meet our new year seven.

0:00:300:00:33

-Sick bucket!

-It's the most important school year of their lives so far.

0:00:330:00:38

Haircut, sir?

0:00:380:00:39

They're all starting here together.

0:00:390:00:41

That level of noise is absolutely disgusting.

0:00:410:00:45

SCREAMING

0:00:450:00:47

Yes!

0:00:500:00:52

This has seen better days.

0:00:550:00:57

You stink, sir.

0:00:590:01:01

CBBC have filled the entire place with cameras,

0:01:030:01:07

so you'll get to watch year seven every step of the way.

0:01:070:01:09

-ALL:

-Whoa!

0:01:090:01:11

Stop waving at me!

0:01:110:01:13

-Yeah!

-Hello, I'm Mr Jones.

0:01:130:01:15

I'm a maths teacher here at Our School,

0:01:150:01:16

and every time that you're here, I'm going to be here too.

0:01:160:01:19

Right now, I'm late for a lesson. Excuse me.

0:01:190:01:22

Come on in.

0:01:240:01:25

# Our School. #

0:01:250:01:27

Boom. Mic drop.

0:01:270:01:29

BELL RINGS

0:01:290:01:31

It's the start of another school day.

0:01:310:01:34

And our year sevens are going to need plenty of energy,

0:01:340:01:37

because this isn't your normal day.

0:01:370:01:40

Mr Shabir's got to change the timetable for his form.

0:01:400:01:43

When everyone finally arrives, that is.

0:01:440:01:47

Quickly, come in. Apologise next time without me asking.

0:01:470:01:50

-Sorry.

-OK.

0:01:500:01:51

Today's a very exciting morning for you, very exciting indeed.

0:01:510:01:55

You're starting to think about your possible careers, OK?

0:01:550:01:59

You might be thinking, "I'm only 11,

0:01:590:02:02

"why do I need to think about what I wanted to do when I'm older?"

0:02:020:02:04

Because time flies and preparation is key.

0:02:040:02:07

You're going to have the opportunity to experience a variety of weird

0:02:070:02:13

and wonderful careers.

0:02:130:02:16

It's all about hands-on learning.

0:02:160:02:18

Enjoy it. Enjoy the time, ask the questions, get involved.

0:02:180:02:23

So, this is going to make today very interesting.

0:02:250:02:29

Round here. Put your bags down there.

0:02:290:02:33

We're bringing a whole bunch of people from all types of careers

0:02:330:02:35

into school, hoping to inspire year seven.

0:02:350:02:40

In groups, they'll each take turns to step out of class and experience

0:02:400:02:44

-the job fair.

-Urgh!

0:02:440:02:48

-Is there a baby hedgehog in there?

-The job fair was sick, man!

0:02:480:02:51

I did like the make-up thing, what do you call it, prosthetics?

0:02:510:02:55

-Yeah, prosthetics.

-Prosthetics. It was a right cool thing.

0:02:550:02:59

It's not, like, beauty make-up.

0:02:590:03:00

-I don't want to be like...

-Special effects.

0:03:000:03:02

Yeah. Like in horror movies, when they have all the cuts,

0:03:020:03:05

-and stuff like that.

-It's nice, innit?

-Oh, that feels so weird!

0:03:050:03:08

-All the gelatine.

-Ker-ching, ker-ching, ker-ching!

0:03:080:03:11

There was a lot of different things there. There was animals.

0:03:110:03:14

-Yeah.

-Construction.

0:03:140:03:17

-Baking.

-Baking. There was wrestling.

0:03:170:03:19

-Yeah.

-Wrestling?!

0:03:190:03:21

Awesome, well done!

0:03:210:03:23

Basically, this is whenever you're taking a move,

0:03:230:03:26

and you're going to land on your back.

0:03:260:03:27

So you need to make sure that you're landing safe on your back,

0:03:270:03:30

-so you're not hurting it.

-Like on a trampoline?

0:03:300:03:32

That's it, exactly that. So come around this side,

0:03:320:03:34

-so you can see what Alan's doing.

-The easiest way to do it is to squat

0:03:340:03:37

down, pretend that you're sat on invisible chair,

0:03:370:03:40

your arms will go out, and then just fall back.

0:03:400:03:43

That looks sick!

0:03:430:03:45

OK. All right, so...

0:03:450:03:47

-Arms out.

-That's it.

0:03:490:03:51

-Arms out, try not to land on your bum.

-OK...

0:03:510:03:53

-Yeah, well done.

-Great.

-You've got that one down.

0:03:560:03:58

If you want to be a wrestler, you have to be fit, to be strong.

0:03:580:04:02

But not always, because there's fat wrestlers, like the Big Show.

0:04:020:04:06

Coming down, hand towards your face, and then...

0:04:060:04:08

Remember, these guys are experts.

0:04:080:04:11

Please don't go trying this yourself.

0:04:110:04:13

-Do not forget to turn your face, that's the important bit.

-Yeah.

0:04:130:04:17

Can you jump onto it?

0:04:170:04:18

Yeah, if you want.

0:04:180:04:20

Aw!

0:04:200:04:22

If I was to go at full pace, I was slowing it right down.

0:04:220:04:24

So if I was going at full pace for a back bomb,

0:04:240:04:26

I wouldn't sit there and I wouldn't go like that,

0:04:260:04:29

-I'd just go...

-BOTH:

-Oh!

-..straight down.

0:04:290:04:32

And for a front one, I wouldn't sit down, I'd just go like that...

0:04:320:04:35

-Did you hit your nose?

-No.

-I thought you did, because...

0:04:370:04:40

That's what you've got to do, he's got to make it look like he's hit

0:04:400:04:43

-his nose.

-Walk, put that arm round there.

0:04:430:04:47

-That arm on top of my head.

-He's going to flip you!

0:04:470:04:49

And then you would just jump forward.

0:04:490:04:51

But don't do it now, cos we're going to do it at full pace, OK?

0:04:510:04:54

So run at me, grab there, I'll get you up, we'll go from there, OK?

0:04:540:04:58

OK, we're going to need paramedics.

0:04:580:05:00

-He's there, ready and waiting.

-Go on, you can do it.

0:05:000:05:03

-Awesome!

-That was sick!

0:05:040:05:07

-That was sick!

-One, two, three...!

0:05:100:05:13

New heavyweight champion.

0:05:140:05:16

New heavyweight! I'm impressed, but I think...

0:05:160:05:19

..the girl was better than the man.

0:05:210:05:22

Do you want to see my finishing move?

0:05:220:05:24

-All right, then.

-You can't do it though, so don't get excited.

0:05:240:05:27

Hear that? This is for experts only.

0:05:270:05:30

Remember, this is all fake fighting, and it takes years of practice.

0:05:300:05:35

Oh, I know that. Ooh!

0:05:350:05:37

Ooh!

0:05:380:05:40

That's your finishing move?

0:05:400:05:41

Can I try?

0:05:410:05:43

-Erm, no.

-No!

-I'd like to try in the future,

0:05:430:05:46

because you don't usually get these opportunities in school.

0:05:460:05:50

Because it's more of a work, work, work -

0:05:500:05:52

-homework, homework, homework - test, test, test.

-Innit.

0:05:520:05:55

That way.

0:05:550:05:58

A more down-to-Earth career on display is bricklaying.

0:05:580:06:02

So, any builders around?

0:06:020:06:03

Do you want to come and lay a few bricks?

0:06:030:06:05

Do you have to lay them in, like...?

0:06:050:06:07

-You have to lay them like in stairs?

-Yeah, you wall them to a line.

0:06:070:06:10

-See how we've got a line set up?

-Yeah.

-That tells you it's level.

0:06:100:06:13

Just wipe a bit on.

0:06:130:06:14

That's it.

0:06:140:06:15

Front, back, top.

0:06:150:06:19

Like buttering a cake.

0:06:190:06:21

I don't really do that much baking!

0:06:210:06:23

It's hard. You've got to get enough cement on the brick,

0:06:230:06:26

got to put it down, it's got to be straight, it's got to be level.

0:06:260:06:29

Too much work.

0:06:290:06:31

One student who does seem interested is Alojz.

0:06:310:06:34

You see, what we need to do is fill all these gaps in here, look.

0:06:340:06:37

So you always start from one end and work back.

0:06:370:06:44

So put some in like that.

0:06:440:06:46

How long does it take to build a house?

0:06:460:06:51

Erm, show houses, we'd normally do in about 12, 14 weeks.

0:06:510:06:56

While Alojz is considering building a house...

0:06:560:06:59

Can't do it, it's hard!

0:06:590:07:01

..Alishba's interest has been ignited by a firefighter.

0:07:010:07:05

When I went there, there was a firefighter stand,

0:07:050:07:08

and there was a woman there.

0:07:080:07:10

Cos you always see firemen or a fireman.

0:07:100:07:13

It was really good to see a woman,

0:07:130:07:15

cos then you know women can do stuff like that as well.

0:07:150:07:17

Go away. Go that way. Go, run that way!

0:07:210:07:23

My name is Alishba, and I am 11 years old.

0:07:270:07:31

Smile!

0:07:310:07:33

I would say I'm a very, very, very confident person.

0:07:330:07:37

Get off my macaroon.

0:07:370:07:41

I would say I'm straightforward as well, so if I have a problem,

0:07:410:07:44

or if I have a problem with someone, I'll just say something.

0:07:440:07:47

That's the definition of reading.

0:07:470:07:49

I get to the point really quick,

0:07:490:07:50

and I don't just wait around and be scared.

0:07:500:07:53

Can you move your hand and stop leaning on my £6 book?

0:07:530:07:56

Oh, £6! That's not a lot.

0:07:560:07:58

Look, look, smile! Say cheese again.

0:07:590:08:02

Cheese!

0:08:020:08:05

I think it's really important to say what I think.

0:08:050:08:07

What? What did you say?

0:08:070:08:10

It's not only me, though. I think everyone should say what they think,

0:08:100:08:12

because if you're scared to say what you think,

0:08:120:08:15

you're going to be like that for the rest of your life.

0:08:150:08:17

So when people really want your opinion,

0:08:170:08:19

you're just going to lie and say, "Oh, this and that,"

0:08:190:08:22

when it's not really what you think.

0:08:220:08:24

You never brought me into the conversation, she did.

0:08:240:08:27

If you think that's wrong, don't think it, say it.

0:08:270:08:29

So, Alishba's made of tough stuff.

0:08:340:08:37

Could this be the career for her?

0:08:370:08:39

So, what we're going to do,

0:08:390:08:41

we're going to have a race and see how fast you can get this kit on?

0:08:410:08:46

OK? Because when it's an emergency situation,

0:08:460:08:48

we've got to be able to get dressed really fast.

0:08:480:08:51

She gave me two minutes, I actually thought that she was going

0:08:510:08:53

to give us, like, half an hour.

0:08:530:08:55

-And she said two minutes.

-OK, let's go! Take your shoes off first.

0:08:550:09:01

-I'm stuck.

-Got to get on that fire engine.

0:09:010:09:05

That's it, good work.

0:09:050:09:07

-What's next?

-Oh. Right, OK.

0:09:070:09:10

Top bit down. So, just a big jacket.

0:09:100:09:13

LAUGHTER

0:09:130:09:15

-Good work.

-Stop laughing!

0:09:150:09:16

We're getting there. Right, here's a zipper, so zip it up.

0:09:160:09:20

Oh, where's the zipper gone?

0:09:210:09:23

It's all about teamwork in the Fire Service,

0:09:230:09:25

so I'll give you a little hand with your zipper.

0:09:250:09:28

When they actually put the mask on,

0:09:280:09:31

she became quite panicky in there.

0:09:310:09:33

Miss, I can't breathe!

0:09:330:09:35

I'm sorry, I can't breathe.

0:09:350:09:37

That's fine, it's hard going, isn't it?

0:09:370:09:39

When I put it on, I felt like I couldn't breathe.

0:09:390:09:41

I only put it on for, like, two seconds, then took it off.

0:09:410:09:44

-How does that feel?

-I can't breathe.

0:09:440:09:46

Miss Ahmed to the rescue.

0:09:460:09:48

You can breathe straight through it.

0:09:480:09:50

Right, right, what you've got to do is just calm down, right?

0:09:500:09:52

-Yeah.

-BOTH:

-Take deep breaths.

0:09:520:09:54

-Come straight in, so you can breathe.

-Yeah.

0:09:540:09:56

Is that better? Is that better?

0:09:560:09:58

It's because you're panicking a little bit with it all on.

0:09:580:10:00

-OK?

-Right.

0:10:000:10:03

Right, we're ready for action, aren't we?

0:10:030:10:05

-Ready?

-How long's that took you?

0:10:050:10:07

4.5 minutes.

0:10:070:10:09

That was very hard. How do you do that every day?

0:10:090:10:12

We do 13 weeks of training to become a firefighter.

0:10:120:10:14

That's a while.

0:10:140:10:16

Yeah. You do need to be good at maths.

0:10:160:10:19

See, maths is useful. I've been saying that for years!

0:10:190:10:22

You need to be good at English,

0:10:220:10:23

you need to be good at communicating with people.

0:10:230:10:26

You need to be good at teamwork -

0:10:260:10:27

that's the number one thing in the Fire Service,

0:10:270:10:29

-cos we do work together. What do you think?

-I feel great.

0:10:290:10:32

Do you fancy it?

0:10:320:10:34

Yeah. I think I might take this home and live with this every day.

0:10:340:10:36

The aim of this job fair's to get year seven thinking about what

0:10:360:10:40

career they might like one day.

0:10:400:10:42

PHONE VIBRATES

0:10:420:10:44

But some of them are already set.

0:10:440:10:47

I would like to be a doctor.

0:10:470:10:50

Or some kind of actor/singer.

0:10:500:10:53

When I grow up, I'd like to be a police officer

0:10:530:10:57

with dogs or any animal.

0:10:570:10:58

I want to be an astrophysicist, because it's my life dream.

0:10:580:11:02

I really want to have that job.

0:11:020:11:03

When I grow up, I will either be a basketballer,

0:11:030:11:07

cos I love basketball. Or engineer.

0:11:070:11:10

When I grew up, I either want to be a rapper or a farmer.

0:11:110:11:14

I want to be a farmer!

0:11:150:11:18

I want to be a photographer when I grow up,

0:11:180:11:20

because I like taking pictures of things.

0:11:200:11:23

When I grow up, I want to be a professional breakdancer,

0:11:230:11:25

because I love dancing and it's always been my dream

0:11:250:11:27

since I was little.

0:11:270:11:29

BELL RINGS

0:11:310:11:33

Some of the year sevens have gone back to class.

0:11:350:11:38

Others are just getting stuck in.

0:11:380:11:41

And the wrestlers are proving very popular.

0:11:410:11:44

Trying out the belts and the real wrestling belts,

0:11:440:11:47

that was my first-ever time holding a proper,

0:11:470:11:50

full-on wrestling belt what wrestlers held.

0:11:500:11:53

Yeah, and then you had to do this weird move on me.

0:11:530:11:57

I think that was just an excuse to drop each other.

0:11:580:12:01

-Because they're boys.

-They're boys, what do you expect?

0:12:010:12:03

All boys, they like to drop each other.

0:12:030:12:05

The grab hold of each other, they grab their shoulders,

0:12:050:12:07

and they take the legs out and then drop them.

0:12:070:12:09

-Hold the wrist.

-Grab his wrist.

-And twist.

-Right, now twist.

0:12:090:12:12

That's it, that's it. That's it! Argh!

0:12:120:12:15

Careful, Wayne! Don't injure the pro.

0:12:150:12:17

So now, when I go to hit you, you just pull my wrist.

0:12:170:12:21

-Argh!

-That's it, that's it.

0:12:210:12:23

BEEPING

0:12:230:12:25

You need to wrap it round your thumb, like this.

0:12:250:12:27

What's that beeping noise?

0:12:270:12:28

That noise is a cardiac arrest over at the paramedic station.

0:12:280:12:31

-Is there a hospital in here somewhere?

-But don't worry,

0:12:310:12:33

Olivia's got it all under control.

0:12:330:12:35

We need to try and get them to give a response,

0:12:350:12:37

either speak to us or open their eyes.

0:12:370:12:39

At the job fair, there was this person there from St John's.

0:12:390:12:42

He was a paramedic.

0:12:420:12:44

He taught me how to do CPR and stuff.

0:12:440:12:46

He had this one dummy.

0:12:460:12:48

And now, start pushing.

0:12:480:12:50

One, two, three, four... Just a tiny bit quicker.

0:12:500:12:53

And then they had this other dummy, where they had, like...

0:12:530:12:56

the heart shock things. I've forgotten what they're called.

0:12:560:12:59

-Defibrillator.

-Defibrill...

0:12:590:13:01

Defibrillator.

0:13:010:13:03

-De... de-what?

-Never mind.

0:13:030:13:05

-Seven, eight, nine, ten. That's it.

-It were right funny.

0:13:050:13:07

We were at the make-up stuff, and she would just, like...

0:13:070:13:10

boom, boom, like trying to do it as hard as she can.

0:13:100:13:13

-It were right funny.

-That's it.

0:13:130:13:15

Bit quicker, bit deeper, that's it.

0:13:150:13:18

Olivia, come on, you're losing him!

0:13:180:13:21

-Keep going.

-Beep, beep, beep...

0:13:210:13:24

As soon as you said that, she actually started pressing harder.

0:13:240:13:27

-Very good, that.

-When you've actually saved somebody's life,

0:13:270:13:30

it's, like, a really good feeling.

0:13:300:13:32

Because you've restarted their heart, and it's, like, so good.

0:13:320:13:37

Us teachers were year sevens once, you know.

0:13:370:13:39

What did we want to do for a living all those years ago?

0:13:390:13:43

I don't think the year seven Ben knew what he wanted to do with life.

0:13:430:13:46

Like most young boys, I thought I wanted to be a professional

0:13:460:13:48

sports star. Professional rugby player.

0:13:480:13:50

In year seven, I wanted not to be a teacher.

0:13:500:13:53

I wanted to be a police officer.

0:13:530:13:55

I went for the old cliche, which was I wanted to be a footballer.

0:13:550:13:58

At the time, I was a massive Manchester United fan.

0:13:580:14:00

When I was in year seven,

0:14:000:14:01

I didn't really have any idea what I wanted to do, what I wanted to be,

0:14:010:14:05

where I wanted to go.

0:14:050:14:06

When I was in year seven, I wanted to be a midwife.

0:14:060:14:09

I always wanted to be a teacher.

0:14:090:14:11

I always wanted to be a history teacher.

0:14:110:14:14

At year seven, year eight, I wanted to become a fireman,

0:14:140:14:18

I wanted to be a firefighter. I ended up doing this.

0:14:180:14:22

I was a pretty cool 12-year-old.

0:14:220:14:24

For some of year seven, the job fair's over,

0:14:250:14:28

and it's time to get back to class and knuckle down.

0:14:280:14:31

But when you have a loud voice and plenty to say,

0:14:320:14:36

that can be really hard.

0:14:360:14:38

Right, what's the problem?

0:14:380:14:39

-What's the issue?

-Alishba just tried...

0:14:390:14:42

Alishba, Alishba, you're about to go on my C Board,

0:14:420:14:45

because you weren't listening earlier.

0:14:450:14:47

It's often in my lessons that Alishba chooses to play up.

0:14:470:14:50

Sometimes, when I'm sitting with the wrong people, I just talk away.

0:14:500:14:55

Sir, can I move my seat? Because I talk when I sit next to him.

0:14:550:14:58

-Sit where you're supposed to sit.

-I sit next to Wayne.

0:14:580:15:01

Don't talk, then. You've just said, "I talk when I'm next to Wayne."

0:15:010:15:04

-Well, you're in control...

-No, but I get distracted.

0:15:040:15:06

Now you're talking over me. You're in control of your own mouth.

0:15:060:15:09

So don't talk, it's as simple as that.

0:15:090:15:12

-It's called life.

-I do try not to talk,

0:15:140:15:17

and do try to not get distracted,

0:15:170:15:19

but it just happens, I just do.

0:15:190:15:21

Did you watch it on TV? Tell the truth or did you actually go?

0:15:210:15:24

It's happened in every lesson.

0:15:240:15:26

You've got to get used to the fact that, sometimes,

0:15:260:15:28

you're going to work with somebody that you don't really

0:15:280:15:30

want to work with. Tough.

0:15:300:15:32

Usually, in maths, if someone's talking,

0:15:340:15:36

Alishba is my prime suspect.

0:15:360:15:38

What's a prime number? So today,

0:15:380:15:41

I'm hoping she's paying attention to my lesson about prime numbers.

0:15:410:15:45

This is so hard, like, what?

0:15:450:15:47

In the maths, I was talking...

0:15:470:15:50

Why you...?

0:15:500:15:52

What? No.

0:15:520:15:53

We have to get these into our books.

0:15:530:15:56

I wasn't basically doing what I was meant to be doing,

0:15:560:15:59

which was doing my work.

0:15:590:16:00

Ultimate cheat band,

0:16:000:16:01

it's got all the times tables on it.

0:16:010:16:03

-So, like...

-It's done.

0:16:030:16:05

Don't have your 11s and 12s.

0:16:050:16:08

That's my "I'm starting to get annoyed" face.

0:16:080:16:11

-You know, Amy doesn't like Aaron.

-She does.

0:16:110:16:14

-She does. She told me.

-She doesn't!

-She told me!

-She doesn't.

0:16:140:16:18

And that's my "you've pushed it too far now" face.

0:16:180:16:22

Right, take your stuff, go and sit next door.

0:16:220:16:25

-What?

-You've not done any work, go and sit next door.

0:16:250:16:27

I'm fed up of speaking to you.

0:16:270:16:29

I didn't even do anything.

0:16:320:16:34

What the flip? He was really mad.

0:16:340:16:36

Like, he was just, "Get out of here."

0:16:360:16:40

-He didn't want to talk to me.

-I'm not mad, just frustrated.

0:16:400:16:44

Maths lessons with Alishba could be so different

0:16:440:16:47

if she just learned to focus.

0:16:470:16:49

Over in the hall, the job fair is still in full swing.

0:16:580:17:02

-We walked in and were like...

-BOTH:

-"Animals!"

0:17:020:17:05

So we just went over to it like, "Whoa!"

0:17:050:17:08

And a career working with animals seems to be a

0:17:080:17:10

-popular choice.

-There's a tarantula in there.

0:17:100:17:13

Maybe year seven feel more at home in a zoo!

0:17:130:17:16

"There's a snake, there's a tarantula..."

0:17:160:17:18

It's cool, isn't it? His belly skin is really, really soft.

0:17:180:17:21

-We're going to be here for hours.

-Oh, the owl.

0:17:210:17:24

-They were massive!

-It were big.

0:17:240:17:27

It had some nice beady eyes.

0:17:270:17:30

The owl was like this.

0:17:300:17:32

"You say something?"

0:17:330:17:34

I think it's funny when they do that!

0:17:350:17:37

I'm like, "Why is it moving its head like this?"

0:17:370:17:39

It's funny when they're looking at you, and they're just like...

0:17:390:17:43

Yeah, and then they go like that.

0:17:430:17:45

-I'm like, "Oh, is it a pigeon now, is it?"

-I got to hold a snake.

0:17:450:17:49

The royal python was not venomous, and I even held it around my neck,

0:17:500:17:54

which is extremely cool.

0:17:540:17:57

But one student is holding back.

0:17:570:18:00

No! I'm not going anywhere near the power of stink.

0:18:010:18:05

-No.

-No?

-No.

0:18:050:18:06

-Maybe?

-No.

-That's not like Abdul,

0:18:060:18:08

he's usually one of the first to get stuck in.

0:18:080:18:11

As my family says, at the end of an era, the beginning of another.

0:18:130:18:17

Since starting secondary school, Abdul's made quite an impression.

0:18:190:18:22

-Abdul?

-Yes, sir. I'm funny. Oh, I cut myself!

0:18:220:18:26

I like to entertain myself.

0:18:260:18:28

But you need to know that Abdul's a class clown,

0:18:280:18:30

he likes to make everyone laugh.

0:18:300:18:32

ABDUL LAUGHS MANICALLY

0:18:320:18:34

-DEEP AND THROATY VOICE:

-With gratitude.

-Oh, yeah.

0:18:340:18:37

I'm also really good at dancing.

0:18:370:18:38

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight!

0:18:410:18:44

One, two! Back!

0:18:440:18:46

Tap, tap, one, two, three!

0:18:480:18:50

Tap, tap, one, two, three!

0:18:500:18:52

Go, back, back!

0:18:520:18:55

Sometimes people say to me, "You're weird."

0:18:550:18:57

And then I say...

0:18:570:18:58

-AMERICAN ACCENT:

-"Thanks, I was born weird!"

0:18:580:19:01

I think that it's very important to be yourself,

0:19:010:19:03

because if you don't be yourself, then nobody will see the real you.

0:19:030:19:07

The only person that I am is myself.

0:19:070:19:09

I think it's fair to say that Abdul's thrown himself

0:19:090:19:12

-into year seven so far.

-Awesome.

0:19:120:19:14

Sign him up!

0:19:140:19:16

He's the life and soul of the party.

0:19:170:19:20

Well, most of the time.

0:19:200:19:23

It's Abdul's turn to visit the animal stand,

0:19:310:19:33

but his nerves are getting the better of him.

0:19:330:19:36

Do you want to meet Diego?

0:19:360:19:38

-He's so cute, honestly.

-They're not going to hurt you.

0:19:380:19:40

-He's scared of animals.

-That's all right, that's fine.

0:19:400:19:43

Some people are. Look how cute that little face is.

0:19:430:19:46

How can you be scared of that little face?

0:19:460:19:48

At first I was scared of the skunk, because I thought it would spray me.

0:19:480:19:51

And skunk spray is apparently poisonous.

0:19:510:19:55

Don't worry, Abdul, only to animals.

0:19:550:19:57

Look how gentle he is.

0:19:570:19:59

Whoa! And then I fed it.

0:19:590:20:01

Yeah, and then... Those live, like, worms, they were wiggling like that.

0:20:010:20:06

Urgh!

0:20:060:20:08

Abdul, touch one. Then put one in your hand.

0:20:080:20:11

-No, thank you.

-They feel weird.

-I'm good, I'm good.

0:20:110:20:13

Do you want to stroke him?

0:20:130:20:15

-Just see what he feels like?

-Is it safe?

0:20:150:20:18

-Oh, absolutely. 100% safe.

-Yeah.

-I would never let anything

0:20:180:20:21

horrible happen. It's my job to make sure that he's really calm,

0:20:210:20:25

-and relaxed, like he is.

-Oh, that's very fluffy.

0:20:250:20:27

He is, isn't he? He's really, really cute.

0:20:270:20:30

Then I thought that maybe I can hold it, it wouldn't be that bad.

0:20:300:20:33

-Do you want to have a go?

-Erm, OK.

-Come on, Abdul.

-I promise you,

0:20:330:20:36

it's safe. He's not going to hurt you.

0:20:360:20:38

-It's grabbing on to me.

-He does, he likes you, that's why,

0:20:380:20:40

he wants to give you a big hug and kiss. He's taking your tie.

0:20:400:20:43

-He says, "I want to look cool."

-Argh.

0:20:430:20:45

-Ready? Pop him on that one.

-Don't drop him, Abdul.

0:20:450:20:47

-That's it.

-Oh.

-What do you think?

0:20:490:20:51

He's hugging you, he's actually hugging into your shoulder.

0:20:510:20:53

-Yeah.

-That's amazing.

0:20:530:20:56

-Do you like him?

-Yeah.

0:20:560:20:58

I wonder how he'll get on with the next animal on display.

0:20:580:21:01

Abdul and the spider.

0:21:010:21:03

Hmm!

0:21:030:21:05

-Why the spider?

-Because it was the funniest.

0:21:060:21:10

Are you mad?

0:21:110:21:13

No! No!

0:21:130:21:16

-Abdul, come on.

-No!

0:21:160:21:17

-I dare you.

-No, no. No!

0:21:170:21:21

Don't try and scare me.

0:21:210:21:23

Can somebody get Miss Ahmed?

0:21:230:21:25

I think we need her gentle powers of persuasion.

0:21:250:21:28

Abdul, listen to me.

0:21:280:21:30

I have arachnophobia!

0:21:300:21:32

Let's just go over and let's have a look. I'm scared as well.

0:21:320:21:35

If you do it, I'll do it, promise.

0:21:350:21:36

This is a fear that can't be conquered!

0:21:360:21:38

Mine as well, mine as well. Come on.

0:21:380:21:40

Do you want to wear my special animal rescue gloves?

0:21:400:21:42

-Ah!

-It's not going to get through the gloves, is it?

0:21:420:21:45

Let's conquer our fears together.

0:21:450:21:47

One second, one second of me holding it.

0:21:470:21:50

Yes, cool. Perfect.

0:21:500:21:52

-Look at that.

-Just one second.

0:21:520:21:54

-One leg.

-We're doing it together.

0:21:540:21:56

Put your hand out, put your hand next to mine.

0:21:560:21:58

-Like that.

-Urgh!

0:21:580:22:01

-Do not move your hand quickly.

-Cos it might bite you.

0:22:010:22:04

-All right.

-So I just came over, and he was there.

0:22:040:22:07

And I was like...

0:22:070:22:09

MUFFLED SCREAMING

0:22:090:22:10

-Yeah, that's exactly...

-That's what I was thinking.

0:22:100:22:13

MUFFLED SCREAMING

0:22:130:22:16

All it's going to do is pass your hand...

0:22:160:22:18

-..on to mine.

-..and go onto hers.

-Oh, my...

0:22:180:22:21

Look at that.

0:22:220:22:24

-Absolutely amazing.

-Urgh!

0:22:240:22:26

That is so brave.

0:22:260:22:28

You are... I'm so proud of you.

0:22:280:22:30

That was so cool.

0:22:300:22:32

-High five.

-That's incredible, Abdul.

0:22:320:22:35

How about trying it without Miss Ahmed's help?

0:22:350:22:37

I absolutely promise you that nothing's going to happen.

0:22:370:22:39

I'm here, it's my job to protect you, OK?

0:22:390:22:42

Make sure you keep it on the gloves!

0:22:420:22:44

Right, I'm going to put it on and take it off.

0:22:440:22:46

That is amazing, see, you can relax.

0:22:500:22:53

What do you think?

0:22:530:22:55

Well done, that is so good!

0:22:550:22:57

-That is so brave.

-OK,

0:22:570:23:00

-now get it off.

-Yeah, get it off?

0:23:000:23:02

It was about to crawl into my thingy.

0:23:020:23:05

-OK, now, put it back.

-Well done.

0:23:050:23:08

You can tell everyone you've held a tarantula now.

0:23:080:23:10

-Well done.

-You can breathe now, you can breathe.

0:23:100:23:14

I'm so proud of you.

0:23:140:23:16

So now I'm not afraid at all with any other spiders.

0:23:160:23:18

That is seriously impressive, Abdul.

0:23:180:23:21

You can tell everyone that you did it, you did real good. Well done.

0:23:210:23:24

Thank you. That really helped.

0:23:240:23:25

The job fair has shown our year sevens

0:23:250:23:28

that school is where you start to shape your future.

0:23:280:23:31

And you know what?

0:23:310:23:32

Anything is possible, especially if you're prepared to work at it.

0:23:320:23:36

The next day, it's back to normal.

0:23:360:23:39

Alishba's had the night to think about her behaviour.

0:23:390:23:42

-On your whiteboards...

-So which one's the biggest factor, then?

0:23:420:23:45

Which one's the biggest factor?

0:23:450:23:47

-I don't know.

-We have to do it together.

0:23:470:23:49

But you don't write it down in your book.

0:23:490:23:51

Copying isn't helping anyone, you have to do it yourself,

0:23:530:23:56

so you know what...so that you can learn.

0:23:560:23:58

If you're copying someone, you don't learn.

0:23:580:24:00

I'm not copying anybody. You're helping, aren't you?

0:24:000:24:03

-Why don't you ask the maths teacher?

-Help me.

0:24:030:24:05

-Why can't you do it?

-Because I don't get it.

-Ask for help.

0:24:050:24:09

He won't help me. There's no point of asking.

0:24:090:24:11

-He won't.

-Right.

-He doesn't like me.

0:24:110:24:14

-Try me.

-I don't like him.

-Just do highest common factor for now.

0:24:140:24:18

Yes?

0:24:180:24:20

You're going to try and do those.

0:24:200:24:23

-Sir, can you help me?

-Yes, I will do, in a second.

0:24:230:24:25

Told you.

0:24:250:24:28

-Right.

-Sir, I was listening, I just don't get it.

-That's all right.

0:24:280:24:30

So, did you get your prime numbers down at the start?

0:24:300:24:33

Finally, it looks like we're getting somewhere.

0:24:330:24:35

-So, can you try 90 for me?

-Yeah.

0:24:350:24:38

Olivia?

0:24:380:24:39

BELL RINGS

0:24:390:24:41

You don't get it? Right, everybody, apart from Alishba, stay here.

0:24:410:24:44

Everybody else, you can go.

0:24:440:24:46

Right, come and sit here.

0:24:460:24:48

Why did I have to send you out yesterday?

0:24:480:24:51

Because I didn't do enough work and I was talking.

0:24:510:24:54

Right, talking. It's not the first time, is it?

0:24:540:24:57

All right? It's every lesson,

0:24:570:24:58

I have to tell you at some point in the lesson to turn round and get on,

0:24:580:25:02

isn't it? Right?

0:25:020:25:04

You need to start concentrating more.

0:25:040:25:07

You need to focus and get some work done.

0:25:070:25:10

Otherwise, this is going to happen every lesson. You're just going to

0:25:100:25:13

go, "I don't get it, I don't get it, I don't get it."

0:25:130:25:16

All right?

0:25:160:25:18

All right. You have been much better today, though.

0:25:180:25:21

Yeah? Because you asked for help.

0:25:210:25:24

You didn't sit there and not do anything, you asked me for help,

0:25:240:25:26

which is what I want. That's what I'm here to do.

0:25:260:25:29

All right? Keep that up.

0:25:290:25:31

What you've done today, that's what I want you to be like every

0:25:310:25:34

lesson. All right?

0:25:340:25:35

Yeah? Right, go on, then.

0:25:350:25:37

I think Mr Jones cares. I think every teacher cares.

0:25:380:25:41

Because, obviously, when they're angry, they have to...

0:25:410:25:44

You know, I think when teachers are angry,

0:25:440:25:47

they're angry on purpose so they can show you that what you've done is

0:25:470:25:50

wrong, and it's not a good thing.

0:25:500:25:53

I saw a side to Alishba today where she's asking for help.

0:25:530:25:56

She's actually wanting to learn, and actually wanting to know how to do

0:25:560:26:00

things, and that's the side we want to see.

0:26:000:26:04

There are often going to be bumps in the road in year seven.

0:26:040:26:08

And I've got a feeling that this lot will always have something to say

0:26:080:26:10

-for themselves.

-You need to learn,

0:26:100:26:13

or else no-one will understand what you're saying.

0:26:130:26:15

Yeah, excellent.

0:26:150:26:17

And today, thinking about the future and the world of opportunity out

0:26:170:26:21

there has really helped bring a new focus to the term.

0:26:210:26:25

As for Alishba, there are changes back home as well as at school.

0:26:280:26:31

So, we've had some good news.

0:26:310:26:33

My mum had a baby boy.

0:26:330:26:35

He's called Mohammed Mujthaba.

0:26:350:26:37

I love him, because he's just...

0:26:370:26:39

Every day, when I go home, I have to pick him up.

0:26:390:26:41

He smiled at me for the first time ever.

0:26:410:26:43

Opened his eyes and he's fully looking at me, first day.

0:26:430:26:46

So that was really good. It was a good feeling.

0:26:460:26:48

Having the baby has made a really big impact on me.

0:26:480:26:52

It makes me feel more mature.

0:26:520:26:54

Are you going to be a good sister? Are you going to look after him?

0:26:540:26:58

Yeah, because I'm going to help him grow up.

0:26:580:27:00

I'm going to help him be a good boy.

0:27:000:27:02

-OK, that's good.

-I feel really positive about myself.

0:27:020:27:06

I don't want that feeling to end.

0:27:060:27:08

I want it to be there every single morning.

0:27:080:27:10

I feel like I've changed.

0:27:100:27:12

You just get a feeling that you've actually done something you want to.

0:27:120:27:17

And I feel as if that I have changed.

0:27:170:27:19

Next time on Our School...

0:27:200:27:23

-Watch the ducks.

-Guys, you need to move out the way!

0:27:230:27:26

SCREAMING

0:27:260:27:28

Sir, do you want my towel?

0:27:280:27:30

Hear that? That's emptiness!

0:27:300:27:34

And...cut!

0:27:340:27:36

HE IMITATES FISH

0:27:360:27:38

No, that came with the bag. What can I do?

0:27:400:27:42

-ALISHBA SNORTS

-Oh, my God!

0:27:420:27:45

Why are you snorting?!

0:27:450:27:46

I can try and be as funny as I can be.

0:27:500:27:54

Or I can just be a little bit weird.
