In 2002 Carlton-Bolling College in Bradford was placed in special measures. Morale amongst staff and pupils was low as HMI criticised performance in a range of areas. This programme looks at how a new head turned round the failing school by implementing new procedures and inspiring staff and pupils with a new enthusiasm. Staff give their comments regarding the difficult journey out of special measures and reveal how they worked with a series of new initiatives designed to reduce truancy and improve teaching and learning.
