| Summary: | Carole Farrar, Headteacher at New Earswick Primary School in York, learnt to juggle in front of her pupils and staff in order to demonstrate the importance of learning new skills. As a result pupils and staff began taking up juggling themselves. Teacher-student relationships improved, detentions plummeted, and the pupils involved themselves in their education like never before. This programme shows how Carole's passion and sense of humour inspired her staff and pupils. Teachers and pupils show how they learned to juggle and discuss the various unforeseen effects benefiting the school and pupils. Having learnt to juggle, Carole has now come up with the idea of getting the whole school to learn to play a musical instrument. Her plan is for everyone in the school to play some sort of instrument, and to start up a 250-piece band. |
