Opis

In January 1971 a young, inexperienced teacher took up his position as Deputy Head of a Primary School in a small commuter-belt village not far from London. The School was not what Nigel Allsop was expecting. The Head of St Patrick's, George Snaith, was involved in a number of unorthodox and illegal practices, only one of which is the focus of this book. In March that year Allsop witnessed Snaith helping two children during a County-administered test and realised also that the same two children had clearly had unauthorised access to the detail of the papers beforehand ... courtesy of their private coach and temporary keeper of the tests, one George Snaith. 'Heads Will Roll' is the story of how Niall Allsop and his teaching colleagues went head to head with those in authority who had turned a blind eye to such practices at the School for years. It is the story of a system that had hitherto opted for a quiet life rather than confront a man whom they knew to be corrupt, a man openly conspiring to cheat the system.
