The trailer teases the arrival of Drop the Dead Donkey actor Neil Pearson as new headteacher Vaughan Fitzgerald.
Nicola Stephenson has also joined the cast as new art teacher Allie, who is the partner of Vaughan.

The cast and crew filmed the show's final scenes in Greenock, Scotland on August 22.
Waterloo Road returns to BBC One on October 15 at 8pm.
