* ADeathInTheLimelight: [[spoiler: Mr Armitage. After a very minor role in series eight of Doctor Who, he's a likable comic relief foil to Miss Quill until his sudden death in the second episode.]]
* AdultsAreUseless: lampshaded in 'For Tonight We Might Die' when April wonders where all the teachers are during [[spoiler: an attack from the Shadow Kin. Turns out they have their hands full with students during the prom]].
* BloodierAndGorier: Unlike Series/DoctorWho, Class does '''not''' use a GoryDiscretionShot when a monster attacks.
* CallBack: Coal Hill is full or artron energy thanks to The Doctor [[Recap/DoctorWhoS1E1AnUnearthlyChild showing up]] [[Recap/DoctorWhoS25E1RemembranceOfTheDaleks a bunch]] [[Recap/DoctorWhoS34E2IntoTheDalek of times]]. [[Recap/DoctorWhoS34E6TheCaretaker He used to be the caretaker.]] A reference to S. Foreman can also be seen in 'For Tonight We Might Die'.
* HumanShield: [[spoiler: Miss Quill uses an inspector as one, but it turns out he was a robot all along.]]



* Main/BlueAndOrangeMorality: Although Chalier is much more likable than Miss Quill, he is effectively keeping her as a slave with her life at stake, and she argues that his government was unfair to her people.

* ShoutOut:
** The above mentioned shout outs to Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer, Series/OnceUponATime and Series/TheVampireDiaries.
** Tanya has three Manga/SailorMoon posters behind her bed.
** Episode two's title is a reference to literature/TheGirlWithTheDragonTattoo
* INeverSaidItWasPoison: Mr Armitage is suspicious of April, Charlie and Tanya when they mention that they know a female clearner is missing in 'The Coach With The Dragon Tatto'.
* TheCameo: Peter Capaldi briefly appears as The Doctor in the first episode.
* WhamShot: The Doctor noticing [[spoiler: Clara's name]] in the first episode. Interestingly [[spoiler: this is about a Doctor Who story arc, rather than being directly related to Class]].

Yes, turns out that the Doctor traveling through time again and again made the walls of space and time stretch thin around Coal Hill, to the point where they are about to burst.
