An Tinneas Tuiteamach/Epilepsy

Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders in Scotland today, and around 54,000 suffer from it - that's 1 out of 97. It can affect anyone, and affect them at any time, and doesn't discrimiate between young and old.

There are about 40 different types of seizures, and a person may have more than one type. But the right treatment can make a huge difference. Support through specialist centres and specialist teams are vital to those who have epilepsy to support and help them. We meet some of those who live with it, and hear about how it impacts both their lives, and the lives of their families and carers, and how they control it, and even overcome it through treatment and surgery.

Poignant, moving and though provoking stories that raise awareness to a condition that to many is hidden - epilepsy.

In this workplace comedy, a group of dedicated, passionate teachers — and a slightly tone-deaf principal — are brought together in a Philadelphia public school where, despite the odds stacked against them, they are determined to help their students succeed in life. Though these incredible public servants may be outnumbered and underfunded, they love what they do — even if they don't love the school district's less-than-stellar attitude toward educating children.
