Sara Cox and the team recreate a 1980s east London school classroom in miniature, capturing memories of a beloved teacher and a first real sense of safety and belonging.

Sara Cox meets restaurateur Karim, who asks for a miniature of his secondary school, St Paul’s Way, a safe haven during his childhood when racism was rife in his east London neighbourhood. Miniaturist Abi Trotman painstakingly recreates the maths classroom of his favourite teacher, leaving a special clue that leads to an emotional surprise when the model is revealed.
