At the beginning of season 3, episode 3 a cat is killed. Skip to 1 minute and 20 second mark, it doesn't affect the plot.

There is a (depressing, to me) scene at a faire where a person wins a goldfish in a bag, and there are many more bags hanging with goldfish in them. (Season 2, episode 2)

A cat is crushed by a microwave at the beginning of S3E3. You see the cat twitching under the microwave and blood oozing from underneath it. Graphic and confronting.

S03E03 - A cat is killed right at the start of the episode when a microwave accidentally falls on it. You don't see the impact but you see the cat bleeding and twitching under the microwave so fairly graphic too.

One of the main characters gets a weight dropped on his hand, there is implied bone breakage and he has to wear a cast for a few episodes due to this injury. Nothing is graphic and there is no breakage sown, only him gripping his hand and asking for an ambulance

No one dies, but a student does threaten to jump to his own death because a girl doesn’t like him back. He doesn’t die though.

I can’t remember if I’m missing any but two of the main disabled characters that I can think of are both played by disabled actors!!
Isaac was originally written as an amputee I think but when George Robinson who plays him got the part, Isaac’s character was rewritten to have a spinal cord injury reflecting Robinson’s real disability. He’s introduced in Season 3 and shows up a lot in Season 4 as well.
Another disabled character is Aisha who is deaf and is alsp played by Alexandra James, a deaf actress.
It’d be pretty risky saying any show is perfect but Sex Education does a pretty good job with representation!!

Additionally, there's a scene where a boy shits in a bus toilet, and it starts over flowing. He panics, pulls it out and throws the feces out a widow. It hits a passing car and it is very graphically shown on their car windscreen.

This prompt is worded awfully. The show has fairly regular eating sounds but they’re not obnoxious IMO. In addition, Ruby says she has misophonia but is later seen eating around people without reacting. So maybe her trigger was something else?

Season 3 episode 5 has a character frantically trying to unclog a toilet in a bus bathroom while someone won’t stop knocking on the door. The bus bathroom is very small, so that plus the sense of urgency could be claustrophobic.

There is a scene in S1E4 where Otis is attempting to masturbate, and to show distress, the camera using dutch angles. I wouldn't describe it as shakey, but might be in the same ballpark?
