The main characters were a mix of teachers and other school personnel, and students. The series was aimed at a teenage audience. Each episode was 30 minutes; five episodes each week were broadcast, stripped across week nights in an early evening 7pm timeslot. The series was renamed Class of '75 for its second and final year. Although originally produced in black and white, it switched to colour broadcasting during its second year of production.[2]
