| 5/10 | Girl Talk | At Kalmadi High School, 25-year-old counsellor Sonal has decided it's time to settle down and opt for an arranged marriage. In the meantime she's faced with teaching the facts of life to a hundred fresh-faced 13-year-olds. |
| 6/10 | Spiritual Journey | The end of the monsoon season signifies festival time in India. As the first term draws to a close, the students of the two schools are preparing to celebrate the biggest Hindu festival of the year, Diwali. While the younger children celebrate with fancy dress and a mela, the senior students head out of town on a school trip they'll never forget. |
| 7/10 | Type Caste | In a look at how the ancient caste system still affects the lives of schoolchildren in India today, this edition focuses on Meghna, an ambitious high caste girl who bitterly resents the policy, and Rohit a shy, bullied, low caste boy who is benefiting from it. |
| 8/10 | East Meets West | Exposure to western music and the internet is changing teenage tastes, and 14-year-old Viraj has just had a big break by landing a role in a Bollywood blockbuster. But classical singer Varsha and dancer Jenny are passionate about India's traditions and they're on a mission to save their culture. |
| 9/10 | Howzat | Every little boy in India dreams of becoming a cricketer, but there are over a hundred million schoolboys and just 11 places on the national team. Ishwar and Rohit are pursuing the same cricketing dreams, but while Ishwar is part of India's booming middle classes, Rohit lives in a city slum. Can the national obsession of India transcend social divides? |
| 10/10 | Exam Fever | Good exam results offer a wealth of opportunity in a rapidly emerging economic power such as India. Over a million and a half students sit their final school exams in the state of Maharashtra alone, and competition is fierce.
