Those who care, aren’t the ones who stay.

Ms Lawson, a new teacher at St Margaret’s High School, believes Jamie Harrow is being bullied because he’s gay. She wants to help but Mrs Rutter, the Deputy Head, thinks it will sort itself out. Is she speaking from experience or is there something more unsavoury about her unwillingness to help?

A gripping and powerful new drama about homophobia and complacency within the staffroom of a school.
