One-off edition of the documentary charting life at Gascoigne Primary School in Barking, east London, this time during the hectic build-up to Christmas. The pupils of Year 2 have been given the challenge of putting on the nativity play, while kitchen manager Mary has the unenviable job of preparing for the biggest meal of the year for nearly a thousand hungry children, with a wide variety of cultural and dietary requirements to be satisfied. Teachers try to improve the lot of 10-year-old Taylor, who fears almost everything about the big school and newly qualified teacher James struggles to help seven-year-old Faisal, the only child at Gascoigne with Down's syndrome.
