The Great British School Swap

In an experiment that explores segregation, children from Tamworth and from Saltley in Birmingham swap places and explore issues ranging from offensive language to British identity.

Friendships develop among the children. A Tamworth boy discovers a cultural divide when he develops feelings for a Muslim girl. And the Saltley students spend their first day in Tamworth.

A clash of views over mixed-sex dancing threatens to upset the experiment when the students and parents arrange a celebration party. Also, the students learn a lesson on which ethnic group gets the best exam results.
