Bad behaviour in the classroom is undermining learning and threatening several schools' results in the multi-academy Castle School Education Trust. Chief Executive Will Roberts and his team decide to introduce Ready To Learn, a strict new behaviour management system.
Episode 6
The school year is drawing to a close and the GCSE exams are looming. After being the lowest performing secondary school in the Academy Trust the previous year, the team at Mangotsfield employs targeted measures to improve its next set of GCSE results. The government gives an allowance or pupil premium to schools for each disadvantaged pupil to help them close this gap. At Mangotsfield there are 14 underachieving pupil premium boys. The progress of these students will be closely monitored by Ofsted. Mangotsfield is currently classed as 'requires improvement' by Ofsted but the school is vying to achieve the status of 'good'. To achieve this they must prove they've made sufficient progress in closing the gap between the pupil premium students and their peers. And Ofsted are coming to inspect the school the next day.

Mystery at Blind Frog Ranch
There are some places on earth where the land just seems different, and Blind Frog Ranch in eastern Utah is one of those places. Locals say the land is cursed.

But Duane isn't concerned with the lore. After discovering a system of seven underground caves that run through his property, he is singularly focused on finding what's hidden in them - no matter what the cost.
American Pickers
This isn't your grandmother's antiquing. The American Pickers are on a mission to recycle America, even if it means diving into countless piles of grimy junk or getting chased off a gun-wielding homeowner's land. Hitting back roads from coast to coast, the Pickers earn a living by restoring forgotten relics to their former glory, transforming one person's trash into another's treasure. The show follows the team as they scour the country for hidden gems in junkyards, basements, garages and barns, meeting quirky characters and hearing their amazing stories. If you think the antique business is all about upscale boutiques and buttoned-up dealers, this show may change your mind – and teach you a thing or two about American history along the way.
