Please Sir! was a very successful tv comedy that ran in the UK between 1968 - 1972. It was set in Fenn Street School and the showed followed a class of students and the teachers.  It was before political correctness and a time when school kids were played by adults.

As with many successful tv comedies of that era there was a spin-off film.  In this scene one of the students, Frankie Abbot, is trying to get his mother to sign a form to allow him to go on the school trip.
