Further details
It may be the start of a new year at Greybridge School, but the teaching staff is as dysfunctional as ever. Miss Postern and Mr Church's relationship has taken a downward turn after a misunderstanding over a date; the woefully underqualified Mr Gunn is now teaching geography; and Mr Barber's got a new job as the school caretaker.
When Miss Postern sets up a careers workshop, it seems her slogan 'Which way now?' applies as much to her as it does her pupils, not least because the guest speaker is her old teacher training colleague (and now best-selling children's author) Fenella Forbes. But at least things are looking up for one member of staff, as it seems Mr Martin is about to launch a successful pop career...
