The prize-winning film "Kes" and the prize-winning TV play "Roll On 4 O'clock" have highlighted life in down-trodden schools populated by children from poor homes and staffed by authoritarian and often dispirited staff.

Using excerpts from these productions Barry Hines, author of "Kes", Colin Welland, author of "Roll On 4 O'clock", and Edward Blishen, author of "Roaring Boys" and other books about life in tough Secondary Modern schools, discuss their own personal views of education with Alan Little.
