Setting
The series is set in and around Waterloo Road, a fictional school for students aged 11 to 18, a comprehensive in Rochdale in series 1 to 7 and a former secondary school in Scotland thereafter. At the opening of the series, the school was notorious for being "on the scrapheap" with poorly behaved students and poor-quality teachers, but each head has tried to prove the school better than its reputation and it has passed multiple inspections to stay open across the years.

“it is finally as though that thing of monstrous interest
were happening in the sky
but the sun is setting and prevents you from seeing it”

Whose dwelling is the light of setting suns,”
