Sharlston Community school, although officially a school for 4 to 11 year olds, the average pupil age is 42. Sadly due to the deprivation in the area, children are held back each year. Those that fair worst are 17th generation Sharlston related to their brothers, mums, sisters, cousins, dad. It's normal to date the next door neighbour who's probably already their first cousin. They will aspire to one day have their own council house and go to pay weekly sofas for a 3 piece suite. Nutrition is poor so children are often clinically obese, the average child is at least 6 stone over the recommend bmi. The school serves meat pie, turkey dinasours and custard every day, the 5 dehydrated peas in the offal pie count as the 5 a day , the head cook Shazza says she's extremely proud of her healthy wholesome menu. The pta often fund raise, selling raffle tickets, to fund the new roof. Sadly the money is paid maintain the teachers wine fund and to pay off ofsted with no benefit to the school. Lessons are not planned, with Chinese nail beauticians paid peanuts to watch the children while the teachers swan off on school trips to Italy without the children.
