Schools on the Frontline (2019x225)

Udgivelsesdato: Okt 21, 2019

During the Troubles nowhere was immune from the violence and fear inflicted on our society. Not the streets, not the factories, not the hospitals. Not even our schools. Through powerful and revealing interviews with teachers and former pupils, this documentary tells the story of how our schools dealt with the traumatic experience of the Troubles as they impacted on the lives of those that lived through it. The programme features tragic and poignant stories from across the many years of the Troubles. At the same time, however, Schools on the Frontline conveys the determination and resilience of teachers – men and women dedicated to improving the lives of their pupils despite the challenging and unique circumstances that lay before them.
