Unfair Dismissal

Duration: 28 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Radio Wales ExtraLatest broadcast: on BBC Radio Wales FM

Jonesy is demanding his job back but he's already been replaced by the college, if not in the hearts of his students. His replacement has no idea what she's let herself in for as the term rolls on for the worst Welsh learners in Wales. Each of them has their own reason for coming to class each week but none of them can really explain why they haven't learned anything, yet.
