Play :: Being a teacher means weekends. It means thirteen weeks holiday. It means a secure job in uncertain times. But Zoe doesn’t want to have to rescue her students She doesn’t want to be called a slag She doesn’t want to sleep with the Head of Science. And she doesn’t want to teach a group of kids how to do life. Because that’s something Zoe’s not sure she knows how to do herself John Donnelly's searing play examines what happens when a young teacher goes off the rails in a failing school. Shocking, revealing and darkly funny the writer draws on his own experience working in schools.
