Exploring community, identity and diversity for primary Age 7-11
1960s British drama which centres on Colin Smith (Tom Courtenay), a
cynical working class youth, who finds himself in a boys'
reformatory for robbing a bakery. The governor in charge of the
reform school (Michael Redgrave) preaches to his inmates that
exercise and physical challenge can permanently destroy a boy's
rebellious streak. But Colin is fortunate enough to be on the
boss's good side due to his natural running prowess and is offered
the chance to train for a race against the local public school.
Tensions build as the big day approaches and after a lot of time
spent thinking on his lonely runs, Colin might just reconsider his
naturally rebellious instincts.
Director Karel Reisz's adaptation of Alan Sillitoe's novel about a
hard-living factory worker and the married woman he seduces. Arthur
Seaton (Albert Finney) is a young man filled with a rage perhaps
even he doesn't fully understand. Working in the tough environment
of a Nottingham factory, he compensates for the drudgery and
discipline of his weekday life with weekends spent drinking and
womanising. His affair with a fellow factory worker's wife, Brenda
(Rachel Roberts), seems especially ill-advised - particularly when
Brenda informs him that she is pregnant with his child. With
abortion illegal at the time, Arthur and Brenda face a difficult
dilemma. Will Arthur face up to the kind of domestic
responsibilities he openly scorns in his own parents, or run harder
than ever?

This is the story of struggles against management regimes in the
car industry in Britain from the period after the Second World War
until the contemporary regime of lean production. Told from the
viewpoint of the workers, the book chronicles how workers responded
to a variety of management and union strategies, from piece rate
working, through measured day work, and eventually to lean
production beginning in the late 1980s. The book focuses on two
companies, Vauxhall-GM and Rover/BMW, and how they developed their
aroaches to managing labour relations. Worker responses to these
are intimately tied to changing patterns of exploitation in the
industry. The book highlights the relative success of various forms
of struggle to establish safer and more humane working
environments. The contributors bring together original research
gathered over two decades, plus exclusive surveys of workers in
four automotive final assembly plants over a ten year period.
