Synopsis

Young teacher Alison MacDonald has taken up an exciting new post at a village school on the Cumbrian coast. But the head teacher there has lost his grip and Alison finds the school fraught with rivalry and malice. Local 'odd couple' Suzy Spencer and her partner Robert Clark are worried about Suzy's daughter who has formed a friendship with an enigmatic new classmate. And Ro Watson, the local Police Community Support Officer is dragged into the school's problems when the unidentified body of a young man is found nearby, his eyes slashed after death. Then there's another fatality - the brutal stabbing of a teacher. Death of Teacher is a riveting portrayal of modern parenting and policing - a harrowing tale of what happens when discipline disappears and jealousy is rife...
