YOUNG PLATO is a documentary about a boys' primary school in Northern Ireland which uses the principles of philosophy and critical thinking to teach children about their area's troubled history and how to cope with their own problems in the present day.
language
There is implied strong language as a person talks about using "the f-word". There is also a rude middle finger gesture.
sex
A young boy talks about online dangers and someone offering to send him "naked pictures".
drugs
There are references to drug misuse and addiction which send out a clear anti-drugs message. In this context, there are images of graffiti on a wall reading "Drug Dealer Scum" and a public health poster showing a syringe being held to an arm.
theme
There are references to, and scenes of, bullying amongst young boys, which feature brief, mild violence. The behaviour is not condoned and the perpetrators are given advice by the teachers to be remorseful for their actions and to think about the causes of them. Both perpetrators and victims are shown in states of emotional upset. There are also discussions about online bullying, with children talking about being sent malicious messages referencing suicide.
additional issues
There is archive footage from the era of The Troubles in Northern Ireland of threat and undetailed violence in the streets. There are references to a school being evacuated because of a bomb scare. There are references to the Covid pandemic.
