Rotten TomatoesThe finest Netflix programme, it manages to be both lighthearted, hilarious, and poignant while still being extremely adult, responsible, and sincere. This teen drama and sex comedy programme This programme is lighthearted, humorous, and educational in many ways. It informs you about 21st century sex appeals and their corresponding misunderstandings, which serve as the foundation for moulding a teen's formative years and having an influence on the adulthood they enter. Otis, a socially shy high school student, may lack experience with romantic relationships, but his own sex education course and living with his sex therapist mother, Jean, provide him with helpful advice on the subject. Otis has reluctantly become an authority on the topic as a result of being surrounded by manuals, films, and tediously frank chats about sex. Otis partners up with whip-smart bad girl Maeve to establish an underground sex therapy clinic to address their classmates' issues once they learn about his family life. Otis wants to exploit this information to elevate his position at school. Yet through his examination of adolescent sexuality, Otis comes to the conclusion that he could benefit from his own treatment.

Across all episodes the vehicles and TV sets used in the production are all late 20th century (1970-1990) models rather than contemporary 21st century ones. This has been done deliberately as it adds to the slightly unreal context of the show.
The show's British writer, Laurie Nunn, said she intended Sex Education to be an homage to the John Hughes high school films of the 1980s, such as The Breakfast Club (1985) and Pretty in Pink (1986).
Although the show takes place in a British school named Moordale Secondary, it has an American high school environment with lockers, Letterman jackets, a rugby ball being carried around (mimicking an American football) the hallways and no school uniforms. The creators did this intentionally to make the show more accessible to international audiences (mainly American) and a homage to the John Hughes films that inspired the show.
Filming for the series took place along the River Wye in England and Wales, including locations in Llandogo and Tintern, Monmouthshire. The scenes set at Moordale Secondary School were filmed at the former Campus of the University of South Wales at Caerleon.
As a result of the #MeToo movement, HBO hired intimacy coordinators for their productions, Netflix followed suit and hired intimacy coordinator Ita O'Brien, to ensure that actors felt comfortable and safe while intimate scenes were rehearsed and later filmed.
