Eric Slatt
hates everyone. Which doesn't really make him an ideal
candidate for Deputy Head at Galfast High School (which,
incidentally, competes for pupils with, and is therefore geographically adjacent to,
a certain Norbridge High, last seen 'volunteering' its best
and brightest pupils to work on The Junior Gazette...)
Only the
collective ineptitude of the rest of the staff can explain
how he came to rise to his current position. So pity poor Suzy
Travis, who arrives fresh out of teacher training
college, and quickly learns that the Staff Room holds far
more livid horrors than any classroom of teenagers. And
surely nothing can have prepared her for becoming the
highest mountain peak in an oppressed regime... Sprocken zee Estransian?
