Line 15:
* [[Purity Sue]] - the Robin starts off as this, but grows out of it. Joey kind of ends up as this.
* [[The Scrappy]] - Mary-Lou is disliked by a good few fans for being a self-righteous goody-two-shoes (particularly when she's a prefect), and getting away with talking smack to the teachers because 'it's not cheek, it's Mary-Lou' (see [[Double Standard]] above). It doesn't help when EBD makes Kathie Ferrars look like an unreasonable bad guy when she - quite understandably - has a problem with Mary-Lou's over-familiarity in ''A New Mistress at the Chalet School''. Merryn Williams evidently hated her, judging how she made Mary-Lou behave towards Len in ''The Chalet Girls Grow Up''.
* [[Stay in
* [[Took a Level In Jerkass]] - Margot Maynard around the time of ''Theodora and the Chalet School''. She goes from temperamental and merely mischievous to blackmailing Ted, throwing a bookend at another girl's head and knocking her out, and bullying her charges. Presumably this is to make her eventual vocation as a nun even more dramatic.
* [[Unfortunate Implications]] / [[Values Dissonance]] - where do we begin? (Consider that the series began in the '20s and ended in the early '60s.)
