[edit] School

Even though she thinks of herself as thick and incapable of learning, there remain sparks of intelligence, which belie her insistence that she is, in her own words, a "muppet".

Generally, Janeece is widely disliked by pupils, because of her reputation of spreading pointless rumours and apparent secrets about anyone, such as a fake rumour that English teacher Tom Clarkson engaged in sexual intercourse with an infatuated pupil, Stacey Appleyard. Janeece loses friends easily because of this (Stacey loses friendship with her and Maxine Barlow has recently stopped having a friendship with her after Janeece says not to go back to Lewis Seddon).

Early on in the first series, she and two other pupils were placed in the "cooler" for a week after they were caught tying up Donte Charles and intimidating him into confessing to his role in a road accident that claimed the life of pupil Adam Deardon.

She has a keen interest in dinosaurs and would want to have a career involving those. Late in Series 2, American Jerry Preston (who had been in talks with Roger Aspinall over the proposed academy) moulded the truth of dinosaurs into a more Christian outlook. He is then shown as a keen Christian preacher, and because of Janeece being gullible, she believes him about dinosaurs being dragons and the "Great Flood" (Noah) drowned them.

In Series 2, Janeece came close to being expelled after her mobile phone was confiscated by Mr Treneman and she stole it back from his office; Mr Treneman caught her when Donte Charles phoned her as she was passing him in the playground.

In the third series opener, Janeece was asked to keep the wedding of Donte Charles and Chlo Grainger a secret, but in typical Janeece fashion, she informed everyone in class.

In Episode 16, Janeece fell in love with a supply teacher - Wilson Bingham. They ran away to a hotel in Manchester. Wilson slept with Janeece, but then he took her clothes and fled the hotel. Steph Haydock and Tom Clarkson found Janeece at the hotel, they then fled to the Caravan park where Wilson was. He was arrested by the police. It was later revealed that Wilson was a convicted paedophile and was wanted in connection with other offences against children. His caravan contained countless photographs of Waterloo Road pupils, and it was revealed that he had tricked his way into working with children by using the identity of another man.
