Sex Education Season 4: Simone Ashley confirms she is not returning!

Just after the release of the third season in September 17, the comedy-drama Sex Education is renewed for Season 4 in September 25, 2021. The premiere date for Sex Education Season 4 is yet to be revealed. But if the production starts in this month and continues through November, then the post-production work would take at least another six months. Thus, fans can expect the series to come in early 2023.

Unfortunately, as of April 2022, there is no news on when the show will even go back into production.

During the filming of Season 3, COVID protocols on set made shooting a "slow and painful" process, creator Laurie Nunn told the Evening Standard. She added, "Everybody [on set] really had to dig quite deep - there were a lot of emotions swirling around." As the pandemic is not over yet, we shouldn't expect Sex Education Season 4 to release in early 2022.

But, according to Netflix Life, the fourth season's filming is set to commence in April 2022, and it may continue till November 2022.

The production team is already preparing for the filming. The casting director Lauren Evans, announced a casting call for Sex Education Season 4 on November. In an interview with backstage.com, Lauren Evans said, "We wanted to find an eclectic ensemble that felt fresh and diverse. The auditions were fantastic." Viewers will see two newbies, Abbi and Kent, in Sex Education Season 4.
