Synopsis

THE SCHOOL FROM HELL, otherwise known as King Arthur's School, is a school for 'new money' - where rock stars and lottery winners send their children for a 'proper' English upbringing. Outspoken, sharp-witted, working class Annie Tomkin arrives at the school to discover it's not quite what she's used to. There's plenty of strange behaviour and odd eccentricities - and that's just the teachers! This book creates mayhem with the rules of education and brings the boarding school into the nineties.
