“Waterloo Road” is a British TV drama series that premiered on BBC One on March 9, 2006. Initially, the show was set in a struggling comprehensive school in Rochdale, England, but in 2012, the setting was relocated to the former Greenock Academy in Greenock, Scotland. The series delves into the lives of the school’s teachers and students, tackling various social issues including extramarital affairs, abortion, divorce, child abuse, and suicide. The show is produced by Shed Productions, the same company behind “Bad Girls” and “Footballers’ Wives.”
