Personality
Gareth and the other "bad apples".
Gareth is one of the less prominent students in Miss Deer Teacher's class, making mostly minor appearances in group scenes with his schoolmates. Aside from brief speaking parts in "Nicknames" and "Souvenir Money", Gareth makes his only major appearance to date in "Life on the Inside", where he is revealed to be among a group of students known as Table Town Middle School's "baddest of apples", who frequently report to detention. In the episode, he is sent to detention for having "gleeked" on his teacher Miss Minty, though he claims to have done so accidentally.
Gareth performing.
Gareth has been shown to be musically talented. In "The Sound of Helen", he performs background music for his class' musical My Fair Helen and is seen playing various instruments, including the keyboard, the xylophone, and drums. In "Lore of the Ring Light", he is seen playing the recorder for the school talent show.
Relationships
Kiff Chatterley and Barry Buns
Kiff leads the escape from detention.
In "Life on the Inside", Kiff and Barry end up in the same detention room as Gareth and his fellow detention regulars Amira, L.E., Mav, and Rosso. Despite facing some initial hostility from them, Kiff eventually convinces them to escape detention with her and Barry, and in the process, she inspires them to start taking their studies more seriously.
