分集介绍
The Choice
With unprecedented and exclusive access, the series follows Birmingham Education Authority, which is the largest in Europe, as it allocates its school places. And it follows a group of children - and their parents - from across Birmingham as they go through the process and make the move from primary to secondary school.
This is an intimate and revealing account of modern Britain, which brings to the fore a better understanding of the complexity and difficulty of administering a system that has to balance all the choices and find school places for 16,000 children in this year alone.
The first episode introduces five families - in the White family, 10-year-old Thomas would like to go to a more ethnically mixed school; the Khans’ daughter Saffiyah is training two hours a day to try to get into the best grammar school; Simone Vassel’s son Jamiah is desperate to avoid going to a school where he fears there may be gangs; Ethan Clamp’s mum Alison knows he would be certain to get into a school with great sport facilities if only he lived a couple of hundred metres closer to it; and Phoebe McHale lives in the leafy suburbs of Sutton Coldfield and is spoiled for choice with her excellently rated local state comprehensive schools.
Cameras follow the hopes and the dreams of the parents as they confront the reality of choice in education and make their selections. They must list six schools in their order of preference but they know they may not get into their first preferences. There is then a tense six-month wait to find out.
The Decision
Following eight pupils and their parents through the process, the film also has unprecedented access to the work of Birmingham Education Authority, which is the largest in Europe, as it allocates its school places.
Having made their selection of schools, there is a six-month wait for all of the children before they can discover their fate. Julie Newbold, the Head of Admissions and Appeals at Birmingham Education Authority, is able to handle all the complex school preferences via a computer algorithm which creates the results in just a few minutes - 90,000 preferences from 15,000 children are entered and one school for each child is offered.
On national offer day, cameras capture the families’ reactions as they hear the verdict.
And for Julie Newbold and her team, the weeks that follow offer day are spent fielding thousands of calls from parents unhappy with their allocation, with over 800 appeals to be heard through the summer.
The First Day
This film attempts a bold same-day, multi-camera experiment following six of the children in intimate detail on their first day at their new schools. With unique access to five schools on the biggest day of the year, cameras capture the experience of the children from the start of the day, until they travel home to their nervously waiting parents. Filmed at very different schools across the city, each of the children goes through this milestone in their own unique way.
Thomas got his preferred choice of school and although he is thrilled, he has never been on a bus before on his own. So it’s a big day of first experiences, and he manages to get lost in the school.
Saffiyah is over the moon to have made it into Birmingham’s best girls grammar school and it is likely to be an emotional day too for her dad Mohammed, who tutored his daughter for months before her entrance exams.
Mohsin’s family were initially disappointed he did not get into Birmingham’s top grammar school but are now happy he is going to a school they believe combines the importance of English tradition with their ethos of hard work.
For Jamiah, there were a difficult few days before he got into his favourite school, which was once notorious and failing but is now making huge strides to change results and perceptions.
And Miles, who found it difficult to fit in at primary school, struggles to make new friends. It doesn’t help that he is 15 minutes late on his first day.
