9. Character Profile: Alexandra May 14, 2010 This bag shows that she shops at the high quality shop Abercrombie & Fitch, indicating her fashion conscious state. The fact that this shop isn’t British but international, shows that she is in sync with the fashion world & knows all of the best shops to buy from. The style of her uniform doesn’t give the typical image of an average uniform as we can see from the pencil skirt & high heels which obviously aren’t correct wear for school. This shows that she cares more about looking fashionable than following the rules. Catherine Schofield S8775 Natasha Mulhall S8637
10. Character Profile: Kelly May 14, 2010 The cigarette in Kelly’s hand conforms to the stereotype of ‘scally’s’ always smoking. The fact that Kelly is wearing a hooded jumper under her school uniform shows her need to break the rules. She is not following the uniform rules by wearing this & also by wearing no tie. This portrays her character as a rule breaker. Catherine Schofield S8775 Natasha Mulhall S8637
11. Character Profile: Jed May 14, 2010 Unlike the other characters in the show, Jed has perfect uniform showing that he follows school rules and is a bit of a goody two shoes. The fact that he almost has his back to the camera signifies that Jed is quite a shy and reserved person. Catherine Schofield S8775 Natasha Mulhall S8637
12. Character Profile: Smiffy May 14, 2010 The fact that Smiffy has a football helps to convey the fact that he is a typical ‘ lads lad’. Here Smiffy is wearing trainers instead of traditional school shoes, showing that he doesn’t care about breaking the rules and helps to clarify the idea that Smiffy thinks he is ‘top dog’ and doesn’t have to do what people tell him to, people have to do what he tells them to do. The pose that Smiffy is performing shows that he likes to make a joke of things and the stance itself has a slight hint of cockiness and self assurance.

13. Our Location: Classroom May 14, 2010 This particular layout of a classroom show that the character are separated from each other more than a typical classroom environment of grouped tables The classroom setting shows that the location is a school The colour scheme of the classroom is similar to the colour of the school uniform Catherine Schofield S8775 Natasha Mulhall S8637
