The Burston School Strike

** "The Burston School Strike" by Casey is a compelling story about social justice and unity in a small English village. It tells of teachers, A.K. and T.G. Higdon, who were unfairly fired, sparking a revolt among their students and the villagers of Burston, Norfolk. The book describes how the Higdons worked to help the farming community, which caused issues with powerful figures like Reverend Eland. When the teachers were wrongly dismissed, the children went on strike, refusing to attend school. The book shares how parents participated in marches and meetings, standing up with their children, even in the face of legal problems. The story explores the families' feelings and the larger fight for fairness in education and worker's rights in the English countryside. **
