Weighing Up The Pros And Cons…
While it might seem like Mr Mitchell took the decision to welcome cameras into his school lightly, we now know differently.
43. Asking For Advice
Before agreeing to appear on the show, Mr Mitchell got in contact with Passmores Academy’s head teacher, Vic Goddard.

Goddard gave Mitchell advice on handling media attention and the pair even stayed in touch throughout the filming period!
44. Voicing His Concerns
Mitchell also shared concerns that taking part would lead pupils into a situation where they might be publicly humiliated or laughed at -a reasonable point.

He wasn’t the only one! Plenty of the staff feared they would be made to look daft if they appeared on the show.
45. Hours Of Filming…
Over the seven week period that filming took place, more than 2,000 hours of footage was recorded. Can you imaging the things we didn’t see?!
