Bad Education season 5 spoilers follow.
Bad Education has revealed the first look at Strictly Come Dancing star Layton Williams in season 5.
To commemorate the BBC comedy series beginning production once again, a teaser photo has been released. It features Stephen Carmichael (Williams) and Mitchell Harper (EastEnders' Charlie Wernham) getting ready for a new school year with Class K.
The former Class K students are now teachers at Abbey Grove School, where they have to deal with the strict headmistress Bernadette Hoburn (The Trouble with Maggie Cole's Vicki Pepperdine).

Gavin and Stacey's Mathew Horne also appears in the first-look photo as former headteacher Simon Fraser (Mathew Horne), who's now working in the canteen.
"I'm so buzzing that everyone embraced the new Bad Education! Thanks to yous, we're back and badder than ever, creating more chaos with a super talented bunch. More life, more laughs, more looks," Strictly's Layton Williams said.
Charlie Wernham added: "The response to the last series was phenomenal, I am so excited for the fans to see what we have in store for series five! We have such a wonderfully talented cast, crew and writing team who have so much fun making the show, I am truly grateful that we all get to do it again!"
Joining the teachers will be Class K's students — including Usma (Asha Hassan), Inchez (Anthony J Abraham), Harrison (Bobby Johnson), Jinx (Laura Marcus), Warren (Ali Hadji-Heshmati) and Blessing (Francesca Amewudah-Rivers).
Series co-creator Freddy Syborn has teased: "Last year, Jack [Whitehall] & I loved putting together our new crew of characters and collaborators. We couldn’t be happier to be back - series five is going to be more joyful than ever.”
In addition to starring in the revived Bad Education, Layton Williams and Charlie Wernham are both writers on the show. Williams was also confirmed to be joining the cast of Strictly Come Dancing last week.
Bad Education season 5 will feature six, 30-minute episodes coming soon to BBC One and the BBC iPlayer.
