As for what's on tap for Sex Education Season 4.

"Following the closure of Moordale Secondary, Otis and Eric now face a new frontier - their first day at Cavendish Sixth Form College. Otis is nervous about setting up his new clinic, whilst Eric is praying they won’t be losers again," the logline reads.

"But Cavendish is a culture shock for all the Moordale students - they thought they were progressive but this new college is another level."

"There’s daily yoga in the communal garden, a strong sustainability vibe and a group of kids who are popular for being… kind?!"

"Viv is totally thrown by the college’s student-led, non-competitive approach, while Jackson is still struggling to get over Cal."

"Aimee tries something new by taking an Art A Level and Adam grapples with whether mainstream education is for him. Over in the US, Maeve is living her dream at prestigious Wallace University, being taught by cult author Thomas Molloy."

"Otis is pining after her, whilst adjusting to not being an only child at home, or the only therapist on campus…"

It sounds like a major overhaul, right?

Simone Ashley, Patricia Allison, Tanya Reynolds, and Rakhee Thakrar all confirmed recently that they would not be back for the fourth season.

There was also some debate about whether Gatwa would be back because of his commitment to Doctor Who.

However, it's nice to know what the cast will look like as we head towards what could be the last season.

Sex Education is produced by Eleven for Netflix and directed by Dominic Leclerc, Michelle Savill, and Alyssa McClelland.

Sex Education Quotes

Boy: They're not still going on about Sex School, are they?
Maeve: Mm. It's as if no one in this town's had sex before.

Host: She wrote this book in response to working on campus at Moordale Secondary, which got some pretty bad press recently following a chlamydia outbreak, and the performance of a so-called Sex Musical. So, Dr. Milburn, tell us about the book.
Jean: Well, I was shocked at the ineptitude of the SRE curriculum in schools, and so I created this easy to read manual to help empower our teenagers, and their parents, as they become sexually active young adults.
Host: Sounds a bit racy.
Jean: Well, if by racy, you mean highly researched and completely essential to the health and wellbeing of our children, then, yes, I suppose it is.
