'Teachers and students confront each other in an uncompromising environment. The younger idealistic teachers side with the students against their more experienced and occasionally embittered senior colleagues. The System remains intractable and dehumanising for both students and teachers.' (RGM Associates website, http://www.rgm.com.au/nm_lit.html)
