Linda Wicks was a PR officer. She was hired by Karen Fisher in Series 7 Episode 6 in order to help with promoting the school. Her rude and entitled attitude gets her on the wrong side of a lot of the staff especially Tom Clarkson when she suggests that they could market Sambuca Kelly's cancer as a way of promoting the school. She rudely asks whether Sam has lost her hair yet.
She tries her best to alter the school image to her liking, by having caretaker Rob Scotcher pose as a teacher, and kicking Josh Stevenson out of a photo due to his acne.
After Linda presents her ideas to Chris and Karen they have enough and tell her that her services will no longer be needed. She snidely tells them that she would never send her children to Waterloo Road.
Trivia[]
- She is credited as 'Linda Wilks', despite introducing herself on several occasions as 'Linda Wicks'. This is presumably an error.
