Kicked out of his own rock band and desperate for rent money, Dewey Finn (Jack Black) pretends to be his friend Ned Schneebly (Mike White) in order to take a well paid 'gig' as a substitute teacher at a private school under the rules of headmistress Rosalie Mullins (Joan Cusack) .He figures that he can help these kids by teaching them about "The Man," For example: whoever is holding them down and not allowing them to succeed and do what ever they would like. He also has them have recess time frequently.
one day, the kids go to their assigned music class, and Dewey hears their playing through a vent. He likes what he hears, and checks out their class to confirm that they are very musically talented. When they come back to his class, he has his rock instruments there.
He tells them that they are going to participate in a class project called "Rock Band," and then secretly making the pupils into a rockgroup, giving them all jobs, and preparing them for the Battle of the Bands, telling them that they will be graded at the end of the 'test', but what they will really be rewarded with is nothing, because Dewey is doing it so that he can get the winning prize money to pay his rent.

l rather liked the way the kids play over the credits at the end ~ l agree with Soho_Black that it would be a lot more helpful to most people if you at least gave a couple of paragraphs on each of your two favourite extras after that well formated list of extras
