eve noakes osborne

Eve Osborne began teaching in a primary school as a young woman and enjoyed a colourful career, working with fellow teachers who ranged from the inspirational to the incompetent and teaching children of all abilities and backgrounds. In this book she looks back on her time at the ‘chalkface’, reflecting on changes to the education system, beneficial and otherwise, and how her attitude to life, learning and teaching were moulded by personal experiences away from the classroom.
