About this listen

Random House presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Star Teacher by Jack Sheffield, read by Gordon Griffin.

It’s 1985, and as Jack returns for another year as headteacher at Ragley village school, some changes are in store.

It’s the year of Halley’s Comet, Band Aid, Trivial Pursuit, Dynasty shoulder pads, Roland Rat and Microsoft Windows. And at Ragley-on-the-Forest, Heathcliffe Earnshaw decides to enter the village scarecrow competition, Ruby the caretaker finds romance, and retirement looms for Vera the secretary.

Meanwhile, Jack has to battle with some rising stars of the teaching profession to save his job and his school . . .

As always brilliant - but we did lose the thread of Laura and Tom a little.

Brilliant read

The narration was all wrong. I'ts not the same without Jack Sheffield. May have to return this as I dislike the narrator so much.

Love these tales of a village headmaster
