Synopsis

It’s 1985, and as Jack returns for another year as headteacher at Ragley village school, some changes are in store.

It’s the year of Halley’s Comet, Band Aid, Trivial Pursuit, Dynasty shoulder pads, Roland Rat and Microsoft Windows. And at Ragley-on-the-Forest, Heathcliffe Earnshaw decides to enter the village scarecrow competition, Ruby the caretaker finds romance, and retirement looms for Vera the secretary.

Meanwhile, Jack has to battle with some rising stars of the teaching profession to save his job and his school . . .
