Author Bio
Jack Sheffield was born in 1945 and grew up in the tough environment of Gipton Estate, in North-East Leeds. After a job as `pitch boy', repairing roofs, he became a Corona Pop Man before going to St John's College, York, and training to be a teacher. In the late seventies and eighties, he was a headteacher of two schools in North Yorkshire before becoming Senior Lecturer in Primary Education at Bretton Hall College of the University of Leeds. It was at this time he began to record his many amusing stories of village life as portrayed in Teacher, Teacher!, Mister Teacher, Dear Teacher, Village Teacher, Please Sir!, Educating Jack and School's Out! Silent Night is his eighth novel in the Teacher series and continues the story of life in the fictional village of Ragley-on-the-Forest. He lives in York and Hampshire.
