Publisher's Summary

These wickedly funny, wickedly realistic stories are set inside schools where chaos is the name of the game. 'Time and the Hour' takes place in a boys’ school, where one class decides to conduct some research and have a bit of fun on the subject of how much time is wasted during each school day. 'Chutzpah', on the other hand, is set in a mixed comprehensive school, where Eileen seems bent on causing as much disruption as possible on the first day of term, in the interests of democracy and women’s rights.

Two sharply-observed school stories from best-selling author Jan Mark.
