Back to School

<p><strong>The year is 1969 and Jack Sheffield is a young teacher in need of a job. </strong><br /><br />In a room full of twenty-nine other newly qualified teachers, he's overjoyed when he's appointed to Heather View Primary. Jack is excited to start his first year there and to begin shaping young minds in a beautiful new location on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales.<br /><br />But Heather View isn't as idyllic as it first sounds. In fact, it looks more like a prison than a primary school. With less than adequate funding and a head teacher who doesn't seem to care, it's no easy task to give the kids the education they deserve. But Jack's determined to do just that.<br /><br /><strong>Full of warmth and good humour, Back to School is like taking a nostalgic walk through the past to a simpler time...</strong><br />_____________________<br /><br /><strong>What readers are saying: </strong><br /><br />***** 'I felt I was transported back in time.
