-SCHOOL BELL

-I can't arrange any appointments

-at the moment.

-The new Head will meet

-all the parents in due course.

-Oh, Mrs Harding.

-You'll both amount to nothing,

-just like this school.

-Get inside. Now!

-"Belts and braces," I said to Col.

-Get a new battery."

-"It's a waste of money," he said,

-I'll spray it."

-I wanted to be early to find out

-how Dr Murphy likes his tea.

-Sorry, ladies. I'll be with you now.

-Sorry, ladies. I'll be with you now.

-

-The Head's parking space is empty.

-Maybe he's stuck

-to his fancy London tea.

-What am I meant to do? My ex wants

-to send him to the local comp.

-I'm tempted to take my Kanada

-out of this dump too.

-This new Head looks about

-as progressive as a 1970s rock star!

-I bet he'll have some amazing ideas.

-Everything's so "out there"

-in London.

-We'll get on fine as long

-as he doesn't call me "boyo!"

-The top dog hasn't come to the party

-so it's back to normal.

-Excuse me?

-Excuse me?

-

-You must be a supply teacher.

-Look after her, Matthew. Try to make

-it a pleasurable experience for her.

-The record is three days...

-..for supply.

-This place

-is a bit of a culture shock.

-But it's lovely,

-once you get used to the smell.

-Do you fancy a cuppa?

-SCHOOL BELL

-"How was your summer?"

-"How was your summer?"

-

-"Universal Studios - brill."

-"Mam was arrested in Top Shop."

-"Mam was arrested in Top Shop."

-

-"Bet Gareth dobbed her in!"

-"All on stand-by?"

-Come on.

-Walk! On the left.

-This is a school, not a zoo!

-Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!

-Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!

-

-That's enough.

-Sorry. I thought I'd entertain them

-until the Head of Welsh arrives.

-Mr Aled Jenkins.

-Mr Aled Jenkins.

-

-Yes, I remember your interview.

-Let's see the entertainment.

-No, it's a bit childish.

-No, it's a bit childish.

-

-No, sir. It's evil.

-Thank you, um...

-Thank you, um...

-

-It's Kanada, with a 'K'.

-Well... "do it," Mr Jenkins.

-This is Pat.

-Pat's a good man.

-He crosses the road and splat!

-PUPILS GIGGLE

-It's good to see corridor culture

-expressed in Welsh.

-I'm Llywela Harding,

-Deputy Head of Welsh.

-Don't you worry

-or get all worked up.

-I'll take good care of you.

-Off you go to morning assembly.

-You know the routine.

-In an orderly fashion.

-PUPILS CHATTERING

-Welcome back.

-"Why is he standing there?"

-I hear you say.

-That's a very good question...

-..on the day we were all looking

-forward to meeting our new Head.

-Can you find yourself

-somewhere to sit, Miss..?

-Dr Stephanie Murphy.

-Lesson number one.

-Don't believe everything you read

-in the newspaper.

-Thank you, Mr Bell.

-I've already had the pleasure

-of reading about Porth-y-Glo...

-..but this belongs in the bin.

-I have a pledge

-for each and every one of you.

-The pupils and the staff.

-I believe everyone

-has the potential to succeed.

-Therefore, join me

-on the journey towards excellence.

-The anthem please, Mrs Harding.

-And in true Porth-y-Glo tradition...

-..give it all you've got!

-"Abort mission or what?"

-# I wandered along lonely paths #

-"Bombs away!"

-# On the bare slopes

-of the Arenig mountains

-# Listening to the breeze

-whispering softly

-# "This land belongs to you and me"

-# This land is my land,

-this land is your land

-# From the summit of Snowdon

-to the coasts and seashores

-# From the south and way up north

-# From Gwent to Anglesey

-# This land belongs to... #

-SINGING FADES

-Some of you

-obviously excel at pranks!

-I'm sure all those responsible...

-..will be brave enough

-to apologize by the end of today.

-Right...

-..off you go to registration!

-You have quite a track record and I

-look forward to hearing your plans.

-I'm free now as it happens.

-Mrs Isaacs? Arrange a meeting for

-Mr Bell and me today or tomorrow.

-Of course, Dr Murphy.

-Thank you, Mr Bell.

-It was the damp.

-It got into the battery.

-I'm in at 7.30am every morning

-except Wednesdays when I do Pilates.

-Sitting down all day

-plays havoc with my back.

-Yes?

-Yes?

-

-What's wrong, lovely?

-What was I saying?

-I think we'll get along just fine.

-I think we'll get along just fine.

-

-Oh, good.

-Tea?

-Tea?

-

-Oh, yes.

-Builders. I hate that fancy stuff.

-SHOUTING AND SCREAMING

-"Come, vial.

-"What if this mixture

-do not work at all?

-"Shall I be married then?"

-Go on! Go on!

-The girls are winning.

-Come on.

-Aargh.

-Aargh... aargh... aargh!

-You believed me, didn't you?

-"Staff Attendance Register"

-Let's be serious - safety equipment.

-Let's be serious - safety equipment.

-Good morning, Year 10.

-Sorry, sorry.

-Well done, you'll have to tell me

-your secret, Miss..?

-Dr Murphy.

-I hope there's a good reason

-for your tardiness, Miss Gravelle.

-Frogs.

-The supplier forgot to deliver them

-and we're dissecting them today.

-Well, good luck, Year 10.

-We're not really going

-to dissect frogs, are we, miss?

-Go on.

-You know which equipment you need.

-Charlie Lewis-Parker-John.

-SMACKING

-Remove that hat in my lesson.

-You can pretend you're not a common

-Jack for at least five minutes!

-It's almost break time.

-I'm sure everyone can be excused,

-Mrs Harding.

-Well, well.

-Stephanie Ann Murphy.

-It's funny how things that go around

-come around, isn't it?

-I'm glad you haven't lost your grasp

-of the Welsh language in London.

-Something has to be said

-for the education you received here.

-It's a shame

-standards have slipped recently...

-..but I'm sure we'll get

-some semblance of order here.

-You've built up quite a reputation

-for yourself...

-..helping two schools

-placed under special measures.

-Three.

-I suspect it'll be

-far more difficult here.

-Things have gone downhill rapidly...

-..since you decided

-to leave for pastures new.

-But that's the challenge.

-To change expectations.

-To change attitudes.

-I'm looking forward

-to working with you...

-..Mrs Harding.

-Mabon. He's a year old today.

-Aww.

-Oh.

-Of course you're taken. Look at you.

-MATH COUGHS

-Did I just..?

-You've met Math Squared.

-Why do you always say that?

-She might get it one day!

-I'm Ceri Gravelle - don't make

-quips about gravel and gritty.

-Aled Jenkins, Welsh.

-So, Aled Jenkins, Welsh...

-..are you temporary staff

-or stuck with us?

-We'll see.

-It's OK, we don't bite.

-It's OK, we don't bite.

-

-Unless you're Jenile Matterson!

-Can I have your attention?

-The Head wants a meeting tonight

-after the last bell.

-No excuses.

-Sorry, I thought...

-There isn't a gents and a ladies.

-They're unisex.

-They're unisex.

-

-Oh, right.

-Look, maybe you should...

-Wrong place, wrong time.

-Don't make excuses.

-I fell awkwardly in the ruck.

-A heffalump of a prop stuck

-her studs in and trampled over me.

-I see.

-Oh, you thought someone...

-Oh, you thought someone...

-

-No.

-I can take care of myself.

-It was cute though.

-SCHOOL BELL

-What year did you leave?

-I couldn't find your photograph

-in the archives.

-Sorry, Col always tells me not

-to poke my nose where I shouldn't.

-I heard what he said, Charlie.

-Oh, my god!

-A lot of people would thank you.

-You'll struggle to find

-any organs under this blubber.

-You'll go far

-if you use that head of yours.

-Don't throw everything away

-because of Aiden Hughes.

-Oh, Col.

-He lives with his mother

-on the St Cennydd estate.

-Does that place still exist?

-Does that place still exist?

-

-My mother lives there.

-Next door to his aunt.

-There was a message

-on the SENCO's answer phone.

-His mother's back in hospital.

-Where the hell is this SENCO?

-She's busy managing

-her own special educational needs.

-She slipped a disc in Faliraki.

-Can you leave this with me?

-Please don't expel him.

-At least we can take care of him

-whilst he's here.

-SCHOOL BELL

-"Emergency meeting. Sorry.

-Running late."

-Are you going to apologize?

-You don't want to be a grass

-on your first day!

-TEXT ALERT

-"Have you remembered a cake?"

-I said you were alright.

-Thanks, sir.

-Oi!

-"Of course! x"

-Thank you, everybody.

-I won't keep you long but a lot of

-things have come to light already.

-Lack of communication

-is one problem.

-I sent you an email

-about this meeting at 8.00am.

-The Internet was down earlier.

-No-one got their emails.

-I sent it last week.

-Is it too much to ask that you check

-your emails once before a new term?

-Updates will be posted on the

-new account of @ysgolporthyglo.

-Keep an eye on it.

-Secondly,

-the disengagement of the pupils.

-The management team needs to work

-on a strategy to get them on board.

-And finally.

-The school motto.

-"Education is a powerful weapon."

-It goes with the school's history

-and tradition.

-We need to break

-bad and negative customs.

-Our pupils shouldn't focus

-on weapons.

-There's been no consultation, Colin.

-There's a way to manage change.

-I'm here to do my job,

-not to make friends.

-On your way out,

-please collect a form.

-What's "mission statement" in Welsh,

-Mrs Harding?

-"Datganiad o fwriad," I guess.

-Thank you.

-I want a mission statement from you

-about changes you foresee here...

-..by tomorrow.

-I'll be asking the students

-for their input too.

-Yes, you're free to go.

-Thank you.

-Do you mind if I..?

-Yes, sure.

-How much time and money

-would it take to pull this down?

-I dunno.

-Come in. He can't wait to see you.

-Hi, Aled.

-Lovely to see you looking so well.

-He always does. How are you?

-I'm much better now.

-Hiya, Mabon. You've got a balloon.

-How's Daddy's best boy in the world?

-You're a big boy now.

-Where's Es?

-Where's Es?

-

-She'll see you at the weekend.

-Who's ready for a top up?

-Oh, Aled.

-What can I get you? We've got lager.

-You must be parched.

-It was his first day at Porth-y-Glo.

-How did it go?

-How did it go?

-

-Great.

-Let's sing Happy Birthday.

-Oh, I thought

-we'd agreed on a Peppa Pig cake.

-I could have got it

-if it was a problem.

-He's only a year old. I'll sign him

-up to Mensa if he notices!

-Did you remember to buy a candle?

-Oh, Mam.

-Oh, Mam.

-

-Sorry, I can't help it.

-Pizza tonight?

-TEXT ALERT

-"You're being followed

-by @prif-porthyglo."

-"A great day getting

-the Porth-y-Glo team in order...

-"..the first step

-on the journey towards excellence."

-Ta-ra, Tom. Thank you for coming.

-Maybe we can meet in the park

-one day.

-Is this why Es, Heuls and Beca

-didn't come today.

-You put him before family

-on our son's birthday.

-Look, I'll go

-so that you two can talk.

-Yes, why don't you go?

-Yes, why don't you go?

-

-No.

-You have to accept that

-Simon is a part of our lives now.

-It doesn't affect our arrangements.

-It doesn't affect our arrangements.

-

-Of course it does.

-It changes everything.

-Aled...

-Sorry.

-Sorry.

-

-Go home.

-Hiya, Mam.

-That's the first day

-done and dusted.

-Things can only get better

-for the pair of us.
