EXCLUSIVE: Munya Chawawa and Bridgerton star Charithra Chandran have been cast in Schooled , the Channel 4 comedy inspired by creator Delia-René Donaldson’s experience in pastoral care at a London academy.
Chawawa is playing ‘T’ alongside lead Shiloh Coke ( Cheaters ), who stars as Kayleigh Clarke – a newly appointed Head of Year 10 with no formal teaching background and very little patience for unruly teens. The pair are joined by Judi Love ( Taskmaster ), Michelle de Swarte ( Spent ) and Chandran, who play Anita, Naomi and Lara respectively. Rebecca Humphries (The Crown) , Alex Bhat (Gentleman Jack) and Elliot Barnes-Worrell (Black Mirror) are also aboard.
