Episode 7.09

It’s decision day at Waterloo Road as the staff nervously await the Local Authority’s decision on whether to close the school. Pressure grows on Eleanor as she realises the consequences of her actions and Karen discovers her duplicity.

Meanwhile, Chris stirs up some healthy competition between the staff and Year 10s as they pull on their wellies to help with a community garden project. But he’s quickly sucked back in to dealing with Scout’s dysfunctional life as her mum leaves her and brother Liam home alone.

Elsewhere, Vicki and Ronan are keen to make a fresh start as Vicki receives some heart-breaking news and Aiden finally realises he has to take responsibility for his actions.
