Further details
Miss Postern warns the other teachers to be sensitive with troubled pupil Josh; his mum has gone off with a Maasai tribesman.
Perhaps giving Josh a part in the bold reimagining of Romeo And Juliet put on by the drama department will take his mind off things?
Mr Church has lost his job as theatre reviewer for the school magazine, so Miss Postern steps in to watch the show, with Josh's dad for company. Could Mr Church be just a little bit jealous?
