“Tepapawai is a Decile 2 school. It has one of the highest staff turnovers in the country and since their last damning ERO Report the hapless Principal, Roger Dasent, can't find enough relieving teachers, certainly no teacher in the school wants to be put in charge of the out of control, law unto themselves boys in 5F. In desperation Dasent places ads on the Internet and ads in education gazettes in places as varied as Bangladesh and Chernobyl and still gets no takers - and he has to reach for the folder at the bottom of his filing cabinet and make a phone call to the one person he had hoped he would never have to speak to again... Mr Gormsby!” - TVNZ; tvnz.co.nz; 10/05/2005

Open Day: Open day at Te Papawai sees Steve’s class making a video and Gormsby’s training for carpark security detail, in which they learn lethal combat and how to field strip a semi-automatic rifle. Meanwhile a Agnes attempts to take her own life and the new computer suite burns down.
