Klasse 10 B is a Norwegian documentary series produced by Strix Television, which was first shown on NRK1 in spring 2010. The series is based on the Swedish concept, Klass 9a (sv:Klass 9A). Filming began in spring 2009, and the premiere of episode 1 of 10 had 536,000 viewers.[1]

The idea of the series was to put some of Norway's best teachers in a poor-performing school class, and try to make them one of the best classes in the country. During the spring semester, class 10b of Sten-Tærud skole in Skedsmo municipality were taken by nine hand-picked teachers.[2]
