Publisher's Synopsis
Twenty-five years ago, newly qualified teacher Andy Seed and his wife Barbara moved to a remote village in the picturesque Yorkshire Dales. There, they anticipated a daily round of gentle simplicity in the countryside. However, whilst Andy fell in love with teaching and living in a village, life as a primary school teacher was anything but simple... ALL TEACHERS GREAT AND SMALL tells the true story of Andy's first year at Cragthwaite Primary School - how he bravely negotiated the vagaries of the local dialect, made disastrous bids to provide a family home, naively and hilariously tried out newfangled ideas in a school stuck in a 1950s time warp, and ultimately discovered a little part of England he was proud to call home.
