When Sylvia Barrett arrives at her first teaching job in a slum area of New York city, she is full of the ideals and enthusiasms of her recently-completed training.
Overwhelmed at first by the sheer size and noise of the place, she soon finds herself doing battle with bureaucracy, cynical teaching staff - and 40 unruly children.
