Cheltenham Ladies' College
A typical term at the Cheltenham Ladies' College, as filmed by members of staff.
Overview
This ambitious, technically proficient and somewhat stiffly narrated production was directed and produced by June Goodfield, then a biology teacher at Cheltenham Ladies' College. She went on to make scientific films and television programmes, as well as writing prolifically - both fiction and non-fiction - and she was also a professor at several American universities during the course of her remarkable career.
