- Where are you going with this OFSTED plotline?
As a former Caversham Primary parent who has experienced the horror of a 'bad' OFSTED rating leading to the suicide of a beloved head teacher, I hope to goodness you've thought this developing plotline through properly. Natasha freaking out and the head 'signed off sick' is concerning me greatly.

WTF. Just invested five months in this story line for it to end like that, George not believing that it was Ruari that battered him on New Years Eve. So poor. That wouldn’t happen in real life. Goodness, I’m so angry I could swear!
