Summary
Zack takes a DNA test to confirm his suspicions about his parentage - although a devastated Jez tells him that if the result comes back negative, it will make no difference to his feelings. Josh's increasingly erratic behaviour forces Tom to seek psychiatric help, while Matt is furious when he hears Rosie is moving away with Alex, meaning he could lose his daughter so soon after she has been born. Grantly and Maggie are left high and dry when the cosmetics company goes broke
Review
If parenting was an exam, there are two teachers at Waterloo Road who would definitely get an F.
Jez can’t see that his son Zac is so worried about being nothing like his dad that he’s starting to question his parentage, while Tom refuses to acknowledge that Josh is behaving oddly, even though he’s no longer doing drugs. Neither man handles his son at all well.
However, it’s Grantly’s attitude to pastoral care that’s most worrying. He does nothing to stop the classroom sniggers over Harley’s reading difficulties. Surely that’s condoning bullying, which isn’t a good message for a drama watched by school-age viewers.
