- Choirmaster Gareth Malone is taking on a challenge unfamiliar to him: increase the literacy of British boys, who, at elementary school levels, lag far behind girls. This literacy includes reading, writing and speaking, the latter which Gareth believes is the key to the other two. His eight week assignment will take place at Pear Tree Mead Elementary & Nursery School in Harlow, Essex, where he has been hired to teach the thirty-nine year 5 and year 6 boys three days a week, the other two days per week where the boys will return to their co-ed classes with their regular teachers. This job is despite Gareth having no formal training in education. After speaking to professional educators, Gareth believes what he has to do is threefold: make what the boys see as work, fun; add a sense of competition into the learning process; and add a sense of risk into the learning process. Gareth learns that the boys have a variety of reasons for their on-the-surface disinterest in the subject, from fright, to frustration, to boredom to simple dislike. Gareth has to get the school's head teacher, Chris Thurgood, on board with whatever his proposals, which may end up seeming unconventional. Chris' task for Gareth is to increase the boys' reading level by six months. With Chris' approval, Gareth takes two major measures: take the learning to a more appealing locale, namely outside; and have a competition against the school's girls, namely in a debate, on topics of interest to the student body as a whole. The latter event may backfire on Gareth if the boys lose, winning which to Gareth is not the goal.
- It's week three of Gareth's eight week experiment to get the boys at Pear Mead School to improve their reading level by six months. So far, Gareth has managed to get the boys interested in his activities, such as role playing - reenacting scenes from books - but which has not achieved much improvement in that reading level or overall literacy, or the boys' want to read. Part of the problem now seems to be not having the proper books in the library that would easily catch a boy's attention. So Gareth decides to take some of the boys, including x-box addicted Jack, shopping with library money to buy some books they want to see in the library. But the centerpiece of Gareth's strategy for most of his remaining time is to structure a reading competition much like the World Cup, the actual football version which will soon be happening. Gareth soon realizes that he has to expand the notion of the competition to bring in important elements of the boys' homes, namely their dads. He also has some boys who require individual assistance for their non-comprehension issues, some of the boys who have been suffering in silence rather than asking for help.
- Gareth only has a few weeks left in his eight week task of increasing the boys' literacy level by six months. So far, he tackled the issues of speaking and reading, and in these last few weeks wants to focus on writing. He issues what some of the students feel is a monumental task: to write the term end play, from developing the concept to scoping the story to writing the lines. To make the task seem more important, he also tells them that the play will be performed at the 400-seat Harlow Playhouse rather than at the school. The boys will be responsible for one half of the play, while the girls will be responsible for the other half. To make each and every boy provide his input into the process, Gareth also decides to let the boy who wrote the line speak it in the final production. Regardless of the overall outcome of the play, Gareth wants to ensure that he touches each and every boy in some meaningful way with regard to getting them to enjoy speaking, reading and writing. Some boys he feels he will have to provide individual attention to overcome their individual issues. Although Gareth feels in his heart that he has made a change for the better, he only thing that counts in the end is the boys' standardized test scores, which head teacher Chris will use to evaluate if this experiment is a success or a failure, and if Gareth's experiment will make her change school curriculum for the future.
