A must watch movie for anyone involved with education.
A British schoolteacher faced with unmotivated,rough and socially
deprived students from the ghetto,shifts attention from dry academic studies
to more attention on social issues and living skills.By engaging with
kids and trying to understand and correct them instead of force feeding them
with academic gobbledygook he manages to give the underprivileged kids
a break and an alternative to work on.A bit of "Hard Times" by Charles Dickens.
This must be the thinking behind holistic education emphasised on nowadays.
Of course it would be a disaster to produce kids with no marketable skills but
given no hopers to educate, at least eventually they would be able to co-exist peacefully in society with their more intelligent contemporaries and find their niche in society instead of ending up as social outcasts.
