I was instantly drawn to the concept of The Teacher. The storyline has potential. However it was a tad disapponting on the whole.
Some of the acting/writing was a little basic/amateur. Jenna Garvey doesn't half bring it on her self going out getting mindlessly drunk on school nights where kids go and her choice of outfits were inappropriate. Her character seemed unprofessional with a cig hanging out of her mouth and looked like she'd been dragged through a hedge. I get that this shows a naivety to her character but even she should realise the right/wrong actions in her role.
She did her best but the acting of some of the support cast was terrible, especially Pauline and Nina. Very soap opera. Talking of soap opera it was good to see Kelvin Fletcher even though he didn't really have much time to shine.
The main negative is the storyline. It started great and seemed to tail off. Jenna Garvey was happy to mess her whole life up on an allegation, and then backtracks. Then when she does find out the truth she doesn't try and clear her name. Not very realistic.
