Jenna, a well-liked and talented teacher, faces serious accusations: she’s alleged to have had a sexual relationship with a 15-year-old student, Kyle Hope, following a night of heavy drinking.
The second series, released in 2024, tells a new story. It centers around Dani Oxley, an art teacher played by Kara Tointon, who begins a secret affair with a coworker while on a school trip. When a student disappears, Dani finds herself caught in a complicated situation, desperate to hide her relationship and protect herself.
The popular series *The Teacher* has been renewed for a third season and currently holds a 78% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 9 reviews.
