Dalia's Vision

A teacher on Atlantis teaching young children

Synopsis

Two police detectives arrive at a primary school asking to speak to the headteacher, Mrs Simpson. The first detective plays a recording of a conversation between a teacher and a pupil. Thirty years ago, an eleven-year-old pupil, Dalia, describes her vision of teaching methods used on Atlantis. Regressing back to this civilisation, she describes the wisdom and benefits of the methods used at that time, which conflict strongly with the present curriculum, already in a state of crisis. Adopting these methods, Mrs Simpson is then sacked and goes on to set up her own school, where Dalia is now teaching, thirty years later. The school has developed a good reputation and great success, but envy and intrigue lead to a fatal consequence.
