Preview — Sex Education Season 4: One Final Lesson
This piece was written during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labor of the writers and actors currently on strike, the series being covered here wouldn’t exist.
As bittersweet as it is, it’s nearly time to say goodbye to Netflix’s Sex Education.
The show returns for its fourth and final season this week, and the teen dramedy still has a few surprises up its sleeve. Namely, Sex Education Season 4 brings some of Moordale Secondary’s students to Cavendish Sixth Form College.
A new school means new opportunities for Otis to expand his sex therapist gig, but Cavendish already has someone with that title. The new locale also means new relationships — or at least hook-ups — and more self-love journeys. The photos and videos tease what this next chapter means for Eric, Jackson, Cal, Ruby, and more.
Meanwhile, Otis and Maeve try to make long-distance work while she lives in the US and attends the prestigious Wallace University, with Dan Levy’s Thomas Molloy teaching her.
Sex Education knows that Otis and Maeve’s slow-burn relationship is one of the biggest unresolved stories series, so the trailer ends with the two reuniting.
Luckily, there are only a few more days left before we know what’s in store for this final chapter and Sex Education‘s last lesson.
Check out the photos and promo video below for a preview!
Season description:
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. 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…
