Bad Education sitcom which is a comedy set out in the same location, this is inside the classroom with the same characters, this is inside the classroom. This lets the audience gain a relationship with the characters because they will get to know their character traits and how they act: for example, everyone knows Mr wickers is an awful teacher and the audience are just ready for his childish and immature behaviour. One character trait that is represented is the stereotype  ' boff ' this is Jing, she wants to get an education and she try's to tell Mr wickers how to teach. Also a stereotype of 'racism ' is represented, she is an example of an Chinese immigrant. chav is another stereotype, this is a younger lower class person typified brash and loutish behaviour and the wearing of designer clothes  I can relate this to one of the students in Mr Wickes class, who wears chavy clothes and talks in a rude and informal way to interact with others in the class. This shows the audience what it is like being chav and it shows the life of teenage boys living in the area and the way they live there life. But also it brings humour to the audience as they will find it funny the way he is because there not used to it and its something new to them, for example when a the 'chavy'  swears towards Mr Wickes  in front of him, and Mr Wickes  doesn't even care, its humorous  because in a normal life you wouldn't get away with it. audience always come back to this programme because its an exaggerated version of real life. they speak to him as a friend so they get away with everything this is humorous to the audience because all teachers are more strict in real life.
