Educating Greater Manchester Series 2 is finally here! And the rest of the episodes will be dropping all within this next week too! Thank you all for your great support of the channel and we hope you enjoy the videos.

That conversation with Jacob about dyslexia was heartwarming. You can see in Jacob’s face that the headteacher really made him feel better about his condition. Was kind of sad to see that he didn’t think he could make it far because of it, but was also really nice to see that he has more faith in himself after that
-
The principal hiding his suspicion and cracking jokes whilst also being aware that someone has a knife is very smart
-
Kaitlyn getting her ADHD diagnosis makes me so happy. Watching her in season 1 made my heart hurt - she was looked at so poorly by staff and her peers, and it was so obvious something was going on. She was having outbursts because she was struggling, and now she's being understood and supported accordingly!
-
Mr povey handles every situation perfectly. The way he spoke to Jacob about dyslexia actually made me so happy!
-
poor Lewis you could tell he really didn’t realise what he had done . I feel so bad for him
-
All staff are brilliant, but the principal/headmaster is incredible. New teaching/caring style of work. Speaks to pupils like they are people and not robots. Great form of dispiline and also encouragement. People studying to be teachers can learn a lot from him
-
As a person with dyslexia I can understand how he feels and with mr Povey reaction to him saying it’s his superpower made my heart melt.
-
Mr Poveys face when the little boy was saying how he was happy and proud of his disabilities is the cutest thing going!!!
-
in this episode when Lewis said about his friends wanting to see it in school my heart literally ached for him. I’m sure his friends knew that it would cause a problem especially when they asked to see it in school,they could’ve saw it at his house or took it to their friends house or just took a picture of it and sent it to them. I felt and still feel bad for him.
-
I actually love how Mr Povey deals with every situation so calmly and doesn't shout at anyone that's how it should be at every school and maybe things would be so much more different
-
Poor Lewis seems like a really nice kid and it shows he doesn't get in trouble often but when he does it upsets him a lot and you can tell he feels really ashamed
-
Lewis actually felt bad for his actions and was seriously sorry. He definitely won't do it again, after that.
-
Fair play to that headteacher, he knows exactly how to put a smile on a kids face. Legend.
-
Aww that conversation with Jacob was brilliant. The look of shock on his face is lovely. Bless him
-
Honestly, kudos to Jacob for being able to be so open to the entire class about his dyslexia. I’m autistic and last year, when I was in school, only two people in my year knew about it, I could never be as open and confident about it as Jacob is about his dyslexia because I’d worry way too much about what people think.
-
seeing mr povey talk to jacob and show him that dyslexia isnt something to be ashamed of was honestly so sweet to me
-
that headteacher is just incredible aint he, for all the awful teachers in the country, teachers that abuse their power, are absolutely ridiculous with kids, hes a shining light
-
poor lewis, you could tell he felt so bad n didn’t realise what he’s done :(
-
Aw I felt so bad for Lewis. Bless him
