The Bay

The derelict Lido, featured in the series, is in Grange Over Sands (not Silverdale as stated), in which there is currently a campaign to get it re-opened and refurbished to its former glory.

The term for 'suspension' or ' being suspended' has not been used in education for more than twenty years and well before this was made. It has been replaced by 'fixed term exclusion'. Plus, no child would be excluded for two weeks, especially for just a corridor fight; it would be regarded as totally inappropriate and open to legal challenge. The school-less fortnight is a useful plot device, but not at all realistic.
