Book Description
Mr Worsley is a hard-to-believe portrait of life in a school in the 1960s. Despite its engaging sparkle of high-comedy, this is a true, autobiographical account of a young teacher's early steps into the profession at a period of educational change. The central character is the unforgettable Mr Worsley himself, headmaster extraordinaire, a figure of grandeur and insight, as well as improbable eccentricity, commanding a school which is as successful as it is bizarre. No-one can fail to be amused by this highly readable, rumbustious, and historically revealing story.
