Kyle Peters (born 15 June 1993) was briefly a Year 10 student at Waterloo Road, joining in Series 4 Episode 13. He was a member of a Traveller family who had set up camp on the school grounds. He had a brief romance with Sambuca Kelly, who was left devastated when Kyle and the rest of the Travellers packed up and left.

Kyle is first introduced alongside his Father, after Eddie Lawson insists that he join the rest of The Traveller kids in school. Kyle refuses but his father makes him go, explaining that they would get into trouble if he didn't.

In his maths lesson Kyle refuses to pay attention and questions Eddie Lawson as to what the purpose of learning maths is. After class, Sam takes Kyle under her wing explaining that she understands what it's like constantly moving around and always being the new kid. The two of them sit together in Jasmine Koreshi's English class.

Kyle along with the rest of the Travellers are accused of stealing lead of off the school roof by Grantly Budgen. Paul Langley insists that Kyle owes him money for a new bag after his old one was ruined after the classroom floods: he further claims that Kyle had stolen his mobile. Grantly, disliking the Traveller kids, takes Paul's side. Kyle is later picked on by Mr. Budgen after being late to class.

Kyle takes part in the football game alongside the other Traveller kids (and Denzil, then substituted for Sam Kelly), who compete against the Waterloo Road students. Prior to this he and Sam kiss. During the match he and Paul get into a fight after Paul calls Sam a minger. Kyle and the rest of the Traveller kids are put in the Cooler by Grantly.

After talking to Mr. Peters, Eddie convinces him to let Kyle stay at Waterloo Road full time, noticing his liking for repairing a quad bike (which Eddie suggests would merit him a Mechanics GNVQ). Whilst Kyle is pleased, the police show up and force the Travellers to move on. Kyle thanks Eddie but explains that it's just how it is for them. He gives Sam his ring and kisses her before leaving along with the rest of the Travellers. He is not seen again.

Eddie remarks that Kyle and the rest of the kids would have done well at Waterloo Road.
