In this deeply moving retrospective of Educating Yorkshire, we go "Up Close" with the teachers and students reflecting on Thornhill Community Academy's most legendary, breakthrough year. Revisit the awe-inspiring moment when English teacher Mr. Burton used an incredible trick inspired by The King's Speech to help student Musharaf overcome a debilitating stammer, completely transforming him from a silent teenager into a confident, global media sensation.
