With Asa Butterfield returning as Otis Milburn, the once awkward teenager who started his own sex therapy clinic at Moordale is now a matured sixth former with a moustache and a secret girlfriend (who\u2019s revealed in the very first episode).<\/p>\n
However, over the course of the series, a huge amount happens, from Maeve and Isaac\u2019s relationship to Jackson meeting new non-binary student Cal \u2013 and so it can be difficult to keep up at times.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve binged the whole season in one go and need a recap, or just want to find out what happens in the end, read on for our full explanation of the Sex Education season three ending. Alternatively, check out our five-star review<\/a>!<\/p> The moment we\u2019d all been waiting for finally happened in Sex Education\u2019s third series \u2013 Maeve and Otis actually kissed for the first time.<\/p>\n After being accidentally stranded in France on a school trip, Otis told Maeve what he\u2019d said in the voicemail that was deleted by Isaac in the series two finale, professing his love for her once again, and the two shared a passionate kiss.<\/p>\n Of course, in typical Sex Education fashion, it was never going to be that straight-forward for the fan-favourite pairing. With Maeve now dating Isaac and Otis having just broken up with Ruby, the kiss majorly complicated things in both of their love lives. Otis tells Isaac about the incident when they\u2019re back in the UK, causing Maeve to push both Isaac and Otis away after their competition for her affections began to get out of hand.<\/p>\n In the last episode however, it seemed as though Maeve and Otis were finally going to be a couple. Otis admitted that he originally started the sex clinic to be close to Maeve and they reconciled, with Maeve deciding to move in with Anna, the foster mother of her sister Elsie, and give her relationship with Otis a go.<\/p>\n Then, at the last minute, Maeve\u2019s mum Erin turns up with the cash she needed to attend the Gifted and Talented programme in America and after Aimee convinces her to go at the last minute, Maeve breaks the news to Otis that she\u2019ll be leaving the country that night.<\/p>\n While Otis and Maeve\u2019s relationship is put on hold, there\u2019s still hope that they could actually pursue a romance when she returns. \u201cWe\u2019ll have to see where we\u2019re at when I\u2019m back,\u201d she tells Otis before saying that it isn\u2019t goodbye, but \u201csee you soon\u201d. We better keep our fingers crossed for #Motis in season four!<\/p>\n After the students, led by Viv and Jackson, upstaged headmistress Hope Haddon\u2019s open day presentation by speaking about sex positivity followed by a spirited performance of the school\u2019s new anthem, F**k the Pain Away by Peaches, they returned to school the next day to find that Hope had gone.<\/p>\n While the students initially thought they\u2019d won the battle against Hope\u2019s rigid new policies, the school\u2019s governor soon broke the news that Moordale\u2019s investors had pulled their funding after the performance. Moordale secondary would be closing down, with the land being sold to developers.<\/p>\n With many of the students now in sixth form, they\u2019d have to find a new school by the end of the term. Where will Otis, Eric, Jackson, Aimee and the rest of the gang go? And will Moordale be saved? Hopefully, series four will provide us with some answers.<\/p>\n The penultimate episode of Sex Education series three ended on a cliffhanger that panicked fans everywhere. After going into labour early, Jean gave birth to a baby girl but immediately started to lose a lot of blood.<\/p>\n While doctors took their time in finding the source of the bleeding and Otis and Jakob began to fear the worst, Jean thankfully pulled through.<\/p>\n Once the anaesthetic wore off, Jean found the unopened results of her baby\u2019s DNA test, which Jakob had insisted they do after worrying he wasn\u2019t the father. Jean opened the letter and while we didn\u2019t get to see its contents, it isn\u2019t looking good for the couple judging by Jean\u2019s reaction. \u201cOh s**t,\u201d she says upon learning the results.<\/p>\n Could the baby\u2019s father be Otis\u2019s dad? Or maybe a previous one-night-stand of Jean\u2019s? We\u2019ll wait to wait until series four to find out.<\/p>\n Sex Education\u2019s third season introduced Cal, a non-binary student who was new to Moordale and over the course of the eight episodes, we watched as they became close with Jackson Marchetti.<\/p>\n Whilst on the school trip in France, Cal and Jackson share a kiss and later try to pursue their romantic connection, however after Cal tells Jackson that he\u2019d be in a queer relationship if they were to become more serious, Jackson freaks out and leaves.<\/p>\n The next day, Jackson apologises to Cal and says that he does want to be with them, however Cal decides that they would be better off as friends while Cal tries to work on themself.<\/p>\n Eric and Adam went on a real journey this season and while they told each other that they loved one another, Eric kissed someone else whilst visiting family in Nigeria.<\/p>\n He later tells Adam and while Adam is happy to forget about the infidelity and move on, Eric realises that it wasn\u2019t just a stupid kiss \u2013 he finally felt free. \u201cI\u2019m ready to fly and you\u2019re just learning to walk,\u201d he tells Adam. \u201cI\u2019ve worked really hard to find myself and I\u2019m beginning to lose who I am.\u201d<\/p>\n The couple decide to break up, leaving Adam absolutely devastated \u2013 however, he begins to grow closer with his family. He tells his mum Maureen that Eric had been his boyfriend and not just his friend, and discovers something he\u2019s actually good at \u2013 dog agility training.<\/p>\n Perhaps with Adam beginning to open up and find himself, a reconciliation with Eric could be on the cards for season four?<\/p>\n Sex Education seasons 1-3 are available to stream on Netflix.
