Fly on the wall documentaries featuring schools.

[Jabbso]

Would anyone happen to remember a fly on the wall series all about a School? I'm fairly sure it was made in the early 70's (they must have had a thing for FotW's as it probably coincided with 'The Family'). I remember watching it a while ago and would love to see it again.

Also I know that Channel 5 did one round about 1999/2000 that was on Saturday mid afternoons, if anyone knows the name of this as well I'd be grateful. I thought it was called 'The School' but I'm having difficulty finding anything relating to it

Ta in advance

I remember seeing clips that might be from the above, it was a special boarding school & pupils didn't need to wear uniforms & could smoke in the dorms.

I was referring to the one made in the 1970s.

It's ok, sometimes the conversations to go off on tangents.

As for the Channel 5 one, I can't remember it, but it was the era of the docusoap so a lot of shows like it were around.
