History dude Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Having just watched the movie I was confused about the school and thought it a bit strange why somebody from either Arbourthorne or Parson Cross was going to a school in Mayfield Valley! Although there was a sort of school there, it certainly wasn't like that one! But having seen the film I could understand why the school was fictional. Homophobic bullying and a teacher telling kids they can't do what they want to do after school. The real school would have been closed down and that teacher sacked! But it was based on a true story!! So somewhere out there is a Sheffield school like that which does allow homophobic bullying and might employ teachers like that. The question is which and is it the only one? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
