The last session of the Moordale students will begin with the fourth and last season of the Netflix original series ‘Sex Education.’ Started in 2019, the series viscerally captured the tumultuous teen years of students from Moordale and their inquisitiveness towards sex. It stars Asa Butterfield, Ncuti Gatwa, and Emma Mackey, who plays Maeve Wiley.
The characters experienced betrayal, fear, sadness, and fulfillment while exploring their sexuality, relationships, and academic aptitude. Maeve’s character is one of the standouts in the series. She is a gritty girl, wearing feminism on her sleeves and encasing the sex problems of her peers for her benefit. But there are many heartwarming moments with the character’s mother, step-sister, and friend Aimee, played by Aimee Lou Wood.
