[edit] The "Teachers"
The Five Rule the School "teachers" represented a cross-section of society. The young teaching team consisted of young adults around 12 - 14 age range picked from a diverse selection of schools and groups around the UK. Each young person selected to take part in the project had an area of speciality they were confident and able to teach adults about. They had their own policies on punishments, budgets, lesson plans and even dress code.
[edit] The "Pupils"
The ten Rule the School "pupils" were an equally colourful and diverse bunch. They were a mixture of teachers, different personalities, age groups and subject backgrounds. They were required to abide by the rules their new found teachers made or face the consequences!
