Matt Bashir is promoted to the position of principal at a notoriously violent and difficult school in Sydney’s south-west. His radical approach to reform brings him into conflict on all fronts and leaves his personal life dangerously exposed.

The Principal is a gritty, adult drama that examines themes of masculinity, identity and community in Australian society. |
