Description
Summary:The programme opens with the dramatic and moving account of how one headteacher, Therese Allen, took over and turned around her failing primary school in a deprived area of Birmingham.

Sir Alan peppers this programme with sharp observations and key points. He's optimistic about the future improvement of learning behaviour. 'It's all about tough love and respect'.
