Sex Education is a British teen comedy-drama streaming television series created by Laurie Nunn for
Netflix. The series follows the lives of the students, staff and parents of the fictitious Moordale
Secondary School as they contend with various personal dilemmas, often related to sexual intimacy.
Sex Education primarily follows Otis Milburn, a student at Moordale Secondary School. Otis begins the
series ambivalent about sex, in part because his divorced mother Jean is a sex therapist who frequently
has affairs with her male suitors but is unable to maintain romantic relationships.
In the first series, Otis sets up a sex therapy clinic with Maeve to help the students of Moordale with
their sexual problems.Their business becomes a success but conflict arises when Otis finds himself
becoming attracted to Maeve.
In the second series, Otis is hit with the pressures of a high school romance after Ola becomes his
girlfriend. New students arrive and challenge the status quo at Moordale while a chlamydia outbreak
causes the teens to question and struggle with topical issues.
In the third series, a new school year begins as Otis enters a relationship with Ruby, Jean expects a
baby in the near future, Eric and Adam are made official, and a new headmistress named Hope is
introduced whose plans for a major revamp at Moordale cause an extra set of complications for the
students.
