Yep! Keep calm and take out your notebooks! The hit British coming-of-age Sex Education is returning to Netflix with bolder lessons. After its successful release in 2019, the plight of the teenagers we have come to love makes its anticipated return on the global streaming platform this January 17, 2020.

Created by Laura Nunn, the story of Otis Milburn, a socially awkward high school student who lives with his sex therapist mother, Jean continues, as he navigates young adult life with his best friend Eric and his growing fascination with newfound friend and sex clinic business partner, Maeve Wiley.

For the follow-up season, as a late bloomer Otis must master his newly discovered sexual urges in order to progress with his girlfriend Ola whilst also dealing with his now strained relationship with Maeve. Meanwhile, Moordale Secondary is in the throes of an disturbing sexually-transmitted outbreak, highlighting the need for better sex education at the school and new kids come to town who will challenge the status quo. 

The series is written and created by Laurie Nunn and produced by Eleven. Season 2 is directed by Ben Taylor, Alice Seabright, and Sophie Goodhart. Jamie Campbell, Laurie Nunn, and Ben Taylor are also Executive Producers on the series.
