Malden College

Malden College is a minor boys’ public school with traditional values and a hard core of long-serving, elderly masters who are strongly resistant to change. But it is 1975, and new educational ideas are afoot in the state sector. The governors decide to appoint a new headmaster with experience in large comprehensives...


This book recounts (not too seriously) some of the incidents that occur in the subsequent year.


Dr Philip Holt has taught in many institutions, including ones similar to Malden College. He is the author of seven books, whose contents range from mathematics to philosophy. His most recent publications are God: The Case Against and But That's Ridiculous! Both are designed for the general, non-specialist reader.
