After the Bell

After the Bell covered everything that happened outside lesson time — clubs, sport, hobbies, holidays and the stuff students actually chose to do.

Including it as a full channel rather than an afterthought was a deliberate editorial choice, and a good one. A site that only ever addresses students as students is talking to a fraction of the person.
