My first published book, Education, Edukation, Edukashun, is the story of a dysfunctional comprehensive school. It’s set in the fictional Welsh mining town of Abercwmtwerp, and tells the story of Dave Falconer, a teacher close to retirement, whose only wish is for his last few years teaching to be as trouble-free as possible.
Subtitled ‘An Entertainment,’ it leads the reader along the neglected corridors of Gruffud-ap-Cynan Comprehensive School, through the consequences of teaching young, inexperienced pupils the the values of sex education, the devastating repercussions of a too liberal selection process for work experience, and the disastrous consequences of staging a school prom in a luxury hotel, especially when combined with concealed alcohol and the rampant hormones of one-hundred-and-sixty teenagers.
