Waterloo Road (TV Series) - Setting

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.

Famous quotes containing the word setting:

    something far more deeply interfused,
    Whose dwelling is the light of setting suns,
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    A happy marriage perhaps represents the ideal of human relationship—a setting in which each partner, while acknowledging the need of the other, feels free to be what he or she by nature is: a relationship in which instinct as well as intellect can find expression; in which giving and taking are equal; in which each accepts the other, and I confronts Thou.
    Anthony Storr (b. 1920)

    The world is ... the natural setting of, and field for, all my thoughts and all my explicit perceptions. Truth does not “inhabit” only “the inner man,” or more accurately, there is no inner man, man is in the world, and only in the world does he know himself.
    Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1907–1961)
