To Sir With LoveThose schoolgirl days Of telling tales and biting nails are goneBut in my mindI know they will still live on and onBut how do you thank someone who's taken you from crayons to perfumeIt isn't easy but I'll tryIf you wanted the sky I would write across the sky in letters that would soar a thousand feet high To Sir with love.The time has comefor closing books and long last looks must endAnd as I leaveI know that I am leaving my best friendA friend who taught me right from wrongand weak from strong That's a lot to learn.
What, what can I give you in return If you wanted the moon I would try to make a start but I would rather you let me give my heartTo Sir with love.
Those awkward years have hurried by, why did they fly away?Why is it Sir, children grow up to be people one day?What takes the place of climbing trees and dirty knees in the world outside?
What is there for you I can buy?If you wanted the world I'd surround it with a wall,I'd scrawl these words with letters ten feet tall,"TO SIR WTIH LOVE"

Of course, it´ll be
much easier for you.
l´m a little afraid of them.
Midday dance session.
During lunch,
the older kids use the hall.
![Page 5: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
l sometimes join them.
Even the old man
shakes a leg on occasions.
Dancing is merely their way
of keeping fit...
...for the more exciting pastime
of teacher baiting.
Couldn´t you be
a bit less discouraging?
lt´s the last thing l want to do.
![Page 6: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The music´s louder than usual.
They´re probably celebrating
their victory over Hackman.
l better go and see Mr. Florian.
l´ll show you the way.
They´re good, aren´t they?
l suppose so.
![Page 7: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The head´s study is this way.
Do you two...
Do you two shake?
Well, l´ll see you later,
Mr. Thackeray.
Well?
Thank you.
But l have to go
and see the principal.
![Page 8: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
You have excellent qualifications,
astonishing ones, in fact...
...as a communications engineer.
Field experience in South America.
Why do you want to be a teacher?
Reasons.
You´ve already tried to get
an engineering post?
![Page 9: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
l tried for months, sir.
We have no blueprint in North Quay.
Most of our children are
rejects from other schools.
We have to help and teach them
as best we can...
...and as much as we can.
The local authorities are not
totally on our side.
![Page 10: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
And from the moment
you accept this position...
...you´ll be entirely on your own.
Of course, l and the staff will do
everything we can to help you.
But success or failure
will depend entirely upon you.
What´s it to be?
l want the job, sir.
![Page 11: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

- Palmer.
- Yes, guvnor.
Campbell.
Present.
l don´t know how much you know,
so we´ll start from scratch.
First, as l call your name...
...will you read anything you like
from one of your school books?
![Page 15: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Fernman.
Right.
´´Only those who...

...or in a public coach. ´´
- Thank you.

...began slightly to impede
the wild mare´s speed.
But Pete was only too fully aware
of what his fate would be...
...for he could not hope
to escape death...
...from being battered and crushed. ´´
Put that away, please.
Thank you.
![Page 18: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Would anyone else like to read?
- Your name, please.
- Pamela Dare.
´´And he had learned to love.
l know not why...
...for this in such as him
seemed strange of mood.
But thus it was.
![Page 19: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
And though
in solitude´s small part...
...the nipped affections
have to grow.
ln him this glowed...
...when all beside
had ceased to glow. ´´
Thank you, Miss Dare.
Next, weights and measures.

lt´s encouraging that
you have a sense of humor.
lt seems you...
...know little and are easily amused.
l can look forward to a happy time.
Copy down the following tables.
Who does he think he is, there?
Cheeky devil.
![Page 22: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Hello, ducks.
Thought you might need this.
How´d it go?
Let´s just say, battle was joined.
l don´t know what we´d do
without a cuppa.
What´s your name?
l know that.
![Page 23: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
l mean, your other name.
Mark.
Couple of things, Mark.
We all know the old man´s views.
And basically, we agree with them.
But he´s safe in an office.
These kids come from homes where
an order is accompanied by a blow.
![Page 24: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
One rude word to their parents,
the roof will hit them.
There´s nothing like that
going on here, right?
So they´ve got us
at a great disadvantage.
Hackman tried to be popular.
He hung himself.
Weston couldn´t care less
about them, and that´s no good.
![Page 25: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
l can´t guide you...
...but don´t take any nonsense
from these little tykes.
They´re good kids, Mark,
most of them.
But if you don´t solve them,
they´ll break you, and damn quickly.
That´s been tried...
...by experts.
![Page 26: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
They´re very expert.
Please, can l leave the room, guv?
Yes, and it´s Thackeray.
Yes, guv.
Most of you girls help your mothers
with the shopping.
So sorry, Mr. ´´Fackeray. ´´
Proper drafty in these parts,
isn´t it?
![Page 27: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
About multiplying...
...there are
a few valuable tricks to know.
Say that you´re offered roast beef
at seven shillings per pound.
Potter.
Must you do that?
l can´t help it, Sir.
lt´s me desk.
![Page 28: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Poor old Potts!
Sit down.
l´ll speak with the caretaker
about it after school.
lsn´t he nice?
l hope l didn´t miss nothing.
Where was we?
About shopping or something...
![Page 29: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
That´s enough, Denham.
l was only asking, Mr. Fackeray.
l don´t want to miss nothing.
Bert, he was just about to show us
a new and valuable trick.
When you´re shopping, you see...
l said, that´s enough.
![Page 30: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Sit down.
Do exercise four, five and six.
Very quietly.
Don´t worry.
The worst is still to come.
You´re still getting
the silent treatment.
What´s the next phase?
Well, unless you can work up
![Page 31: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
a little black magic...
...these little bastards have
a multitude of tricks.
Why did you take up teaching?
lt´s good to have some kind of a job.
But l´m teaching them nothing.
l´m not even getting to first base.
Don´t worry.
![Page 32: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Your lot leaves this term.
The next will be better.
They´ll be just as bad.
Probably worse.
What´s your answer?
What they need...
...is a bloody good hiding.
l feel rather sorry for them,
you know?
![Page 33: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Most of them can hardly read.
You´re so naive,
my dear old colleague.
They´ll be earning twice as much
as us before you can shake a stick.
They´ll happily be part
of the great London unwashed:
llliterate...
...smelly and quite content.
![Page 34: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
An education´s a disadvantage
in this day and age.
That is ridiculous!
But still true.
So you had better start
brushing up...
...on your voodoo if you wish
to remain sane.
Good morning.
![Page 35: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
All right, take your seats.
- All right, Sir?
- L hope you didn´t hurt yourself.
You all right?
Cheap stuff they´re selling nowadays.
Want me to help, Sir?
Sit down.
![Page 36: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Take your proper places.
We can move around here,
you know, Sir.
Take your proper places.
Beg pardon.
Something the matter?
Seales, is something wrong?
lt´s me mum.
She´s awful sick.
![Page 37: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
l´m sorry.
Anything l can do?
Nothing.
- She´s English.
- L see.
You´re like my old man,
except you´re bigger and younger.
Rotten bastard!
![Page 38: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
You shouldn´t speak like that.
You know nothing.
l hate him!
Why not?
Never forgive him for
what he did to me mum. Never!
He married her, didn´t he?
Didn´t he?
![Page 39: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Today, let´s take a look
at South America.
l´m sorry, Mr. Fackeray.
The bloody things just slipped.
The name is Thackeray,
and they are not ´´bloody things. ´´
They were a pile of books.
That´s a good netting score.
Pam, love, that´s not a bloody pile,
but it´s a pile of books.
![Page 40: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
All right, settle down.
l was only trying to help,
Mr. Thackeray, Sir.
That´s right, Mr. Fackeray.
Curley was only trying to put
that little scrubber in her place.
l know what Curley was trying to do.
Now just settle down.
We are going to study
South America.
![Page 41: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Now turn to page
in your geography book.
´´They were alone...
...but not alone as they who
shut in chambers think it loneliness.
The voiceless sand and the drooping
caves that lay around them...
...made them to each other press...
...as if there were no life
![Page 42: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
beneath the sky... ´´
Sorry, love.
lt´s the bleeding desk.
Do you speak such words
to your father?
You´re not my bleeding father!
All l want to know is,
who does he think he is?
Mate, shut up!
![Page 43: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Morning.
Hello, Thackeray.
How goes it?
Fine, thank you, Sir.
All you boys, out.
The girls stay where they are.
What´s the matter?
- Out at once!
- All right.
![Page 44: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
l am sick of your foul language...
...your crude behavior
and your sluttish manner.
A decent woman keeps
certain things private.
Only a filthy slut
would have done this!
Those who encouraged her
are just as bad!
![Page 45: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
l don´t care who´s responsible.
You´re all to blame!
l´m leaving for five minutes,
by which time...
...that disgusting object
had better be removed.
And the windows opened
to clear the stench!
lf you must play these filthy games,
do them in your homes...
...and not in my classroom.
![Page 46: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
What´s the matter?
Man, oh, man!
l lost my temper. The one thing
l swore l would never do.
God, did l lose my temper!
What happened?
After all the bull
l´ve taken in my life...
![Page 47: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
...in a few short weeks,
those kids have got me so steamed up.
So easy. So quickly.
l never would have thought it.
- Perhaps you´re trying too hard.
- Those kids are devils incarnate.
l tried everything. Everything!
But nothing l tried...
Kids.
![Page 48: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Kids.
That´s it!
Those are out.
They are useless to you.
l realized you are not children.
You will be adults in a few weeks,
with all the responsibilities.
From now on, you will be treated
as such by me and by each other...
![Page 49: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
...as adults.
Responsible adults.
Next, we´ll be reasonable
with each other.
We are just going to talk,
you and l.
You are going to listen
without interruption.
And when l am finished,
one of you may have your say.
![Page 50: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Without interruptions.
Next...
What a morning!
Everything´s gone wrong.
First, the alarm didn´t go off.
Then l had to wait hours for a bus.
l must have stood there
three bleeding hours...
Example:
![Page 51: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
There are two ways to enter a room.
One is like an adult,
a lady with dignity.
The other is like a brat.
Miss Dare has shown us the second way.
Perhaps you´d demonstrate the first.
l´m sorry l´m late.
Next...
![Page 52: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
...we are all going to observe
certain courtesies in this classroom.
You will call me
Sir or Mr. Thackeray.
The young ladies will be
addressed as Miss...
...the boys by their surnames.
Why should we call them Miss?
We know them.
l beg your pardon?
![Page 53: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
l said, why should we
call them Miss?
We know them.
ls there a young lady you feel...
...does not deserve to be
addressed as Miss?
- No, Sir.
- Good.
Next, general deportment.
![Page 54: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
First, the young ladies.
They must prove worthy of
the courtesies we will show them.
Soon, boyfriends and marriage
will concern you.
No man likes a slut for long.
Only the worst type will marry one.
And the competition for men
on the outside is rough.
![Page 55: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Next, men.
l´ve seen garbage collectors
who are cleaner.
Toughness is a quality
of the mind...
...like bravery,
honesty and ambition.
lf you want to wear your hair long,
clean it...
...else you´ll soon get lice and smell.
![Page 56: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Soon your principle interest
will be girls.
You will be more attractive
with clean clothes, clean shoes...
...hands, face, teeth, et cetera.
Any questions?
Miss Pegg.
What about Mr. Weston, Sir?
![Page 57: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
He´s never tidy, his shoes is
never brushed, and his hair´s a mess.
lt´s filthy.
Mr. Weston is not your teacher.
We won´t discuss him.
l´m the one to criticize
if l fail to maintain the standards.
That´s not fair.
Sir...
![Page 58: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
...or Mr. Thackeray.
Didn´t you understand?
That´s not fair...
...Sir.
l agree.
But that´s an example of things
you´ll have to put up with as an adult.
You´ll just have to take it.
![Page 59: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Next, we are going to talk
about various...
Good morning.
- L wanted to see how you were doing.
- Fine, sir.
Good.
Thank you.
What is it?
Palmer.
![Page 60: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
What are we going
to talk about, Sir?
About life...
...survival...
...love...
...death, sex, marriage...
...rebellion, anything you want.
![Page 61: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
l never did see one like him, Pam.
Even when he blew his stack,
no swearing or nothing.
Blimey!
Ain´t natural, that´s what.
Does he really mean what he says?
l don´t know.
lt´d be a change, though, to see
those creeps acting like gents.
![Page 62: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Here, which one do you fancy?
l like Babs.
Yeah? Watch this.
- Come on, Pam, love.
- Get lost, Denham!
l don´t like
your smelly tricks, do l?
And it´s Miss Dare to you.
![Page 63: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Get stuffed.
Come on then, love.
You heard what Sir said,
Mr. Smarty Denham.
lf you want to dance with me,
you bleeding well ask proper.
May l have the pleasure
of this dance, Miss Pegg?
Blimey!
Good old Potts.
![Page 64: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Get you, Potter.
Shut up!
Who does he think he is,
bleeding Fred Astaire?
Come on, Miss Pegg.
Look at me.
l am a lady, l am.
Rotten tarts, all of them.
![Page 65: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Bleeding chimney sweep
was right about that.
He won´t catch me
spending me nicker on them.
He said we could talk about anything.
You are so right, Tich, me mate.
He did say we could ask him anything.
Questions and answers.
Last night on the telly,
![Page 66: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
there was this travelogue picture.
You know, a lot of black women
dancing around with no tops.
Don´t they ever dress proper?
What´s proper varies
throughout the world...
...depending on
customs and climate.
For their climate and customs,
they were dressed properly.
![Page 67: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Are you from South Africa, Sir?
Of course not.
South Africans is white, isn´t they?
A South African is a native
of South Africa, regardless of color.
l was born in British Guiana.
What did you mean the other day
about rebellion, Sir?
Change.
![Page 68: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Take your hairstyles.
That´s a form of rebellion, isn´t it?
What, Sir?
Don´t you do it
to be different from adults?
They´ve messed up the world,
haven´t they?
- You can say that again.
- So you rebel.
Even the way you dress is
a form of rebellion, isn´t it?
![Page 69: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
lt´s just the new fashion, Sir.
Of course, the adults look
proper stupid in our gear.
Do you think it´s wrong
to be different, to rebel?
lt is your duty to change
the world, if you can.
Not by violence.
Peacefully, individually,
not as a mob.
![Page 70: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Take the Beatles.
They started a huge social revolution.
The fashions they set in dress...
...and hairstyles are worldwide now.
Every new fashion is
a form of rebellion.
There´s a fine exhibition
of costumes through the ages...
...on at the Victoria
![Page 71: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
and Albert Museum.
l think you should see it.
Also, you should see
the Museum of Natural History.
What, us lot to go to a museum?
- Sure.
- You´re joking.
You´ll discover that
your hairstyles are years old...
![Page 72: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
...and that your costumes
or your dress...
...is right out of .
Shut up!
Look, Sir, when can we go?
There´s no time after school,
and l´ve got to look after the kids.
l have to do the housework
and get the supper for the lodgers.
Me mum´s expecting a baby any day,
and l got to baby-sit.
![Page 73: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Why don´t you take us?
We could go in the morning.
Who would like that?
What a drag!
Don´t you want a day off?
Put your hand up.
- Put both hands up.
- Fat chance!
lt wouldn´t work.
![Page 74: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
lt´s not the sort of risk
we´d dare to take at North Quay.
l would like to try, sir.
The best of pupils are inclined
to show off in public.
Your class?
You´d never be able
to supervise them.
When l took this job,
you said you wouldn´t interfere...
![Page 75: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
...as long as l stayed
within your framework.
lf you can get another staff member
to go with you...
...l´ll approach the council.
l see little hope of approval.
Thank you, sir.
Miss Blanchard, l think l can
arrange an outing with my class...
![Page 76: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
...if l can get
another teacher to go along.
l´d love to.
And it´s Gillian.
When is the outing?
When we arrange
travel warrants and permission.
Just let me know when.
Thanks, Gillian. Bye.
![Page 77: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Good morning.
What would you like
to talk about today?
Ladies first.
Miss Joseph.
Marriage, Sir.
You know, boyfriends and things.
How do you know he´s the right one?
What to look for.
![Page 78: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
How to avoid divorce.
Don´t get married.
Where´s Miss Purcell?
She´s to look after the home today.
Her mum had the baby last night.
What hospital?
No hospital, Sir.
The doctor came to her.
![Page 79: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
She all right?
She just had a kid.
Now, marriage.
First, let us lay some ground rules.
l´ve never been married,
so what l say is as an outsider.
Now, what should a girl
look for in a man?
![Page 80: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
l think first we ought
to determine what is marriage.
Miss Joseph.
Holy wedlock.
Potter, be serious.
You´ll get your turn.
Miss Pegg.
lt´s life, isn´t it, Sir?
![Page 81: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Everyone gets married.
l mean, sometime.
Why didn´t you marry?
No one would have him.
l was very poor.
And there was something in me
that wanted an education.
So l put all of
my energies into that.
![Page 82: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Well, l got started later.
Just never met the right girl.
What should a girl look for
in a man?
- Miss Clark?
- What work did you do, Sir?
l waited tables.
l cooked in a hamburger joint.
l washed dishes for a time, cars.
For a year l was a janitor
in an apartment block.
![Page 83: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
- All sorts of jobs.
- You washed dishes?
l did.
But you talk posh.
- That wasn´t easy.
- You didn´t always talk like that?
When l was your age, l used a patois,
a kind of simple English.
l buy and bust your booby
if you don´t get up off of this place.
![Page 84: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
l didn´t understand a word.
Well, l don´t always understand
what you say either.
But the point is, if you work hard,
you can do almost anything.
You can get any job you want.
You can even change your speech
if you want to.
After l got my degree...
![Page 85: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
...l went to work in South America
for an oil company.
The only women in that region...
...were jungle lndians who carried
blowpipes and poison darts.
You could have broke my hands.
We were discussing marriage.
To my mind, marriage is
no way of life for the weak...
![Page 86: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
...the selfish...
...or the insecure.
What´s the matter, Weston?
These damn fool Americans!
They bog up everything
they´re connected with.
What a shower!
![Page 87: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
l´ll never forgive the President for
not coming to Churchill´s funeral...
...nor sending the vice president.
Rotten bad manners.
- Lt was very naughty.
- L quite agree.
A typically stupid, appalling
and unnecessary mistake.
- What can you expect?
- Still beefing?
Give them a chance.
They´ve not been in the business...
![Page 88: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
...of leading the world
as long as Britain was.
You continue to astonish me,
old chum.
l should thought
if anyone took a point of...
Now what?
Miss Pegg wants to know
if the netball´s fixed.
Miss who?
![Page 89: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
Barbara Pegg.
Miss Pegg, Sir.
Here you are, Fernman.
Thank you, Sir.
What´s going on in
this classroom of yours?
Suburban formality? Lt´s a bit
foreign in this neck of the woods.
Some sort of experiment
![Page 90: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
in culture for the masses?
lt´s an elementary
experiment in courtesy.
And do we ignorant critters
have to follow suit?
- Please yourself.
- Thank goodness for that!
Do you object to being
taught manners by one of the boys?
l don´t expect to be taught
by those morons.
![Page 91: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
So long as we learn,
it doesn´t matter who teaches us.
Good afternoon, everybody.
Now we´re talking.
Nothing like payday.
By the way, your museum visit
has been approved.
lf anything goes wrong,
the school suffers.
![Page 92: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
Nothing will go wrong, sir.
For a moment, l thought
l was in the wrong classroom.
Where´s Jackson?
We don´t know.
Tich wouldn´t miss this
unless he was sick or something.
We´ll give him a few minutes.
![Page 93: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
lt´s me, Jackson.
l have to take the bag-wash for mum.
Can you wait?
Sure.
How long will it take?
Half a mo.
Just up the frog.
God love you.
Hang on, Tich.
l´ll give you a hand.
![Page 94: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
All right.
Back on the sidewalk.
What´s a frog got to do with it?
lt´s a rhyming slang.
Old-fashioned cockney.
lt´s not used anymore.
Just for old people.
lt´s a drag, Sir.
![Page 95: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
Frog means road.
Frog and toad, road.
Trouble, strife, wife.
Weeping willow, pillow.
Use the first word.
Like the old currant bun,
that´s the sun.
- Apples and pears, stairs.
- Happy kill, skill.
Ginger beer, queer.
![Page 96: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
All aboard.
l think he fancies her.
l know you do.
Pamela Dare has a crush on you.
Women say the damnedest things.
l think he´s nice.
So do l.
![Page 97: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
You´ve noticed.
l don´t treat her different
from the others.
l hope we can go out again,
don´t you?
l hope so.
l hope we can go with him,
because he´s nice.
Don´t make any mistake
![Page 98: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
about Pamela.
She´s a woman
in every sense of the word.
l mean...
...not that l blame her.
Bleeding rotten taste he´s got.
Good night, Sir.
- See you tomorrow.
- Good night.
![Page 99: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
Perhaps you´d like me
to tidy your desk.
- That´s all right.
- Lt´s no trouble.
You ought to get a flat nearby.
Brentwood´s much too far away.
- There´s nice ones around.
- L´ve thought of that.
Well, l tell you what.
l´ll keep my ears open for you.
![Page 100: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
That´s kind of you,
but l´m fine for the moment.
l´ll let you know.
Thank you.
Don´t worry about your desk.
l´ll tidy it for you every day.
Thanks, but that won´t be necessary.
That´s perfectly all right.
A woman´s work is never done.
![Page 101: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
Good night, Sir.
Hi, fellas. How are you?
Good morning, Sir.
Mr. Florian has given us
permission for more outings.
l´d like to hear suggestions
of what we might do.
- The pictures.
- Wembley, Sir.
![Page 102: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
Cup Final Day.
Chamber of Horrors.
What about the Cavern?
You know, Liverpool.
The Beatles.
How´s it going?
Fine, thank you.
Don´t worry.
![Page 103: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
He´ll come with me on my day.
You´re under
a supervision order too?
Around here, that´s nothing.
Most of us have been
in front of the law.
Breaking windows, playing truant,
raising hell and cussing the coppers.
You´ve cut yourself.
![Page 104: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
You´d better put something on that.
You might get lockjaw.
Blimey!
Red blood.
What do you expect, pinhead?
lnk?
l didn´t mean no harm.
lt was a joke.
l didn´t mean no crack, Sir.
lt´s all right.

What´s with you?
Are you addressing me, Denham?
Potts was only being funny.
What you calling him pinhead for
in front of chimney sweep?
l was only joking.
Sir didn´t mind.
He said, ask anything.
![Page 106: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
You call those questions?
Always on about his color.
You´re wasting our time.
Seales, you ought to know better.
What have l done?
l didn´t say nothing.
You never do,
and you´re half-colored.
You sit on your ass
and keep your trap shut.
lf they want to know,
why don´t they ask you?
![Page 107: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)
l´m not Sir, that´s why.
l only wish l was.
l know what´s eating you.
You fancy him, that´s what.
This is a fine how-do-you-do,
isn´t it, Potts?
You lay off, Denham,
you son of a bitch.
![Page 108: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
Today, l´ll show you
how to make salad.
You mean we´ve to cook and all?
Sure, why not?
My old man never cooked nothing
in his life.
He says that´s women´s work.
But suppose you´re on your own,
as you certainly will be shortly.
![Page 109: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
You´ll have to do it for yourself
sometimes, won´t you?
Not again, Sir.
This is survival training.
A normal English salad...
...not fit for human consumption,
even if you remove the slugs...
...and add a dash of the extraordinary,
a bit of mayonnaise.
![Page 110: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
Look at this.
Mum went to the doctor.
l didn´t want to miss today.
He won´t be no trouble.
lt´s all right.
Sit down.
Make room over there for her.
Okay, come on.
![Page 111: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
Never be afraid to experiment.
And always remember that
you can eat well...
...even though you´re broke.
See?
You ever been broke, Sir?
Real broke, skint?
Many, many times.
l don´t understand you a bit, Sir.
![Page 112: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
l mean...
...you´re a toff and you ain´t.
What he means is...
Blimey, l can´t sort of put it
into words or anything.
Well, Sir...
...you´re like us, but you ain´t.
l mean, you´re not.
lt´s kind of scary but nice.
![Page 113: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)
You know what l mean, don´t you?
l don´t know how to answer you,
except to say...
...that l teach you truths,
my truths.
lt is kind of scary,
dealing with the truth.
Scary and dangerous.
Have you ever had a salad
![Page 114: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/114.jpg)
with almonds and grapes...
...and tomatoes and lettuce
and pineapple?
She´s in love with you, Mark.
You shouldn´t be so surprised.
We have a lot of marvelous schools
now in the East End.
lt´s still difficult
to get quality teachers.
![Page 115: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/115.jpg)
Take us,
the bottom of the pile.
Goodness knows we´ve had
a scruffy lot here.
Then along comes
Mr. Mark Thackeray...
...big, broad, handsome,
clean, intelligent...
...looking like
he stepped out of a bandbox.
What do you expect?
![Page 116: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/116.jpg)
What do l do?
Nothing. Just be patient.
Thanks.
Pamela´s just finding out
she´s a grown woman.
You´re probably the only real man
she´s ever met in her life.
Don´t spend too much time
alone with her.
![Page 117: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/117.jpg)
Why didn´t you ask Gillian?
l thought you´d be wiser.
Thanks.
Hello, Sir!
We can´t have you queuing up.
lt´s Sir. He teaches
our Moira up at North Quay.
He´s only got an hour for his lunch.
![Page 118: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/118.jpg)
- What´ll it be?
- Half a dozen oranges.
You´ll like them.
They´re lovely.
Here you are, guv.
Penny´s wedding cake.
Jeannie´s older sister.
She got married,
so here´s a bit of cake.
Jeannie Clark.
![Page 119: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/119.jpg)
Yes, Miss Clark.
That was a lovely museum outing.
Will they do it again?
We´re trying to arrange one a week.
That´d be lovely, won´t it?
The more education, the better.
That´s what l always say.
lt´s a proper bleeder,
what with the bomb and all.
![Page 120: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
Ain´t the bombs.
lt´s them bleeding Yanks!
Shut your gob!
My Gert´s married to a Yank.
And a proper nice gent he is, and all.
Keep your opinions to yourself!
God all bloody mighty!
The entente cordiale?
First cast the mote
out of your eye...
![Page 121: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)
...before you cast the bomb
out of mine!
He´s a proper faggot.
Here you are.
You´ll like them.
Thank you.
Who´s next?
Come on, girls.
Speak up!
![Page 122: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)
l was wondering if you would give
the girls some makeup lessons.
l think quite a few
of them would be...
...very pretty if they knew
how to do it.
Why, certainly!
You are getting involved
with your children, aren´t you?
l´m just trying to help.
That´s the job, isn´t it?
![Page 123: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/123.jpg)
- You want some of this?
- No, thanks.
ls that all you´re having
for lunch?
You on a diet?
l´ll tell you, l´m a weak man.
At the moment, a little skint.
When l eat, do l love to eat!
![Page 124: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/124.jpg)
l love wine,
but l just can´t have a glass.
l want the whole bottle.
So l avoid wine
and pastrami sandwiches...
...and baked potatoes...
...with butter and bacon...
...and strawberry shortcake
and cheesecake.
![Page 125: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/125.jpg)
But l like to eat light for lunch.
How´s the Dare girl?
No problems.
- Will you stay on here, Mark?
- Till l get sorted out.
No luck with the jobs?
But l´m plugging away.
Remember a few weeks ago,
you thought you´d lost the battle?
![Page 126: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/126.jpg)
l thought you had too.
There´s a good angel
looking after me.
Come on.
Sort yourselves out.
Come on, hurry up!
All right? Go!
Come on, Denham. Hurry it up.
![Page 127: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/127.jpg)
Land on your toes.
Do it again. Next!
Next!
Buckley!
Come on, boy.
l´m not a boy.
l´m a man.
l don´t want to do it.
lt´s too high.
![Page 128: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/128.jpg)
You´re a fat boy.
Come on.
l´m waiting.
Get that jelly off!
Fats can´t do it.
lt´s too high for him.
Of course, he can´t do it!
When l want your opinion,
l´ll ask, boy.
- L´m not a boy.
![Page 129: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/129.jpg)
- Shut up!
Buckley, do as you´re told!
- Move out of the way, boy.
- Shut up!
ls he all right?
l don´t know.
You bloody bastard!
Put that down!
![Page 130: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/130.jpg)
You knew Fats couldn´t do that.
You had it in for him.
Potter, put that down!
They´re fighting in the gym!
Come on, Potts!
That was no accident!
l´ll take that.
![Page 131: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/131.jpg)
Go and help Buckley.
Go on!
Potts should have done the bastard
like he did Fats.
You all right, boy?
Yes, thank you.
Me stomach didn´t half hurt.
Jackson, lngram?
Help him up to Mrs. Evans.
![Page 132: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/132.jpg)
All right.
What happened?
Buckley´s all right.
More frightened than anything else.
Why´d you make him do that jump?
He just stood there
and refused to obey.
When he jumped, he sent the buck flying
and l couldn´t catch him.
![Page 133: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/133.jpg)
Thanks for helping me out.
That Potter went berserk.
l understand that Buckley is
a pet whipping boy of yours.
ls that right?
l´d better report it.
There´ll be the devil to pay.
Potter, l can´t think of anything
that excuses your behavior.
![Page 134: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/134.jpg)
But it was him!
He made Fats do it.
Fats said he couldn´t do it.
The bully always had it in for him.
l am not concerned with
Mr. Bell´s behavior, but yours.
What if a gun or knife
had been handy?
Potter was narked.
We was all narked.
That bleeder was wrong
and you know it.
![Page 135: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/135.jpg)
You´re missing the point.
You all are.
Soon, you will be out in the world.
Will you use a weapon every time
someone angers you?
You´re supposed to
be learning self-discipline.
You owe Mr. Bell an apology.
Why?
![Page 136: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/136.jpg)
Just because Bell is a teacher?
You better answer that, Potter.
Do you think you behaved
like an adult?
How about Bell
apologizing to Buckley?
My business is with you,
not Mr. Bell.
lt´s easy for you to talk.
No one pushes you around.
![Page 137: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/137.jpg)
Are you a man or a hoodlum?
Do it, Potts!
Or Bell will call the law
if you don´t.
You´ve got to have recommends
for a job in a couple weeks.
He´s got to sign one.
This has nothing
to do with what l sign.
![Page 138: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/138.jpg)
You can´t trust a teacher.
We´re only safe together.
Against them.
But Sir is different.
lf he says Potts...
That he is, and he´s wrong now.
You all know Bell´s been after
old Fats for years.
Go on, Potts.
![Page 139: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/139.jpg)
lf you apologize
because you´re afraid...
...then you´re a child, not a man.
When l leave,
l´ll have me own barrow.
So you can´t touch me,
letters or no letters.
l´m sorry l´m late, Sir.
But it´s me mum.
![Page 140: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/140.jpg)
She´s dead.
l´ve been helping me dad
with her things.
- L didn´t know where to go, Sir.
- That´s all right.
lngram, take over the class.
l understand that
the passing out class holds...
...some kind of a celebration
at the end of term.
![Page 141: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/141.jpg)
What happens?
We dance...
...Sir.
Did you apologize because of Denham?
One should fight
for what one believes...
...provided one is absolutely sure...
![Page 142: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/142.jpg)
...one is absolutely right.
Pass these out.
You have to fill those out...
...for national health insurance
and so on.
What are you doing, Jackson?
lt´s for Seales.
For flowers and a wreath.
That´s wonderful of you.
![Page 143: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/143.jpg)
May l be permitted
to contribute something?
No, thank you, Mr. Thackeray.
Here, Pam, you buy the wreath.
The name´s Dare.
Miss Dare.
Well, you buy the wreath.
![Page 144: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/144.jpg)
Send it around when the time´s right.
Send it?
Aren´t you going to take it?
You don´t think
girls could take it, do you?
Well, why not?
lt´s what people would say, Sir.
What the family would say...
![Page 145: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/145.jpg)
...if they saw us going
into a colored person´s home.
We´ve got nothing against you, Sir.
Honest.
But if one of us was to...
You can´t imagine the things be said.
Thank you, Miss Pegg,
for making it clear.
Does that apply to the men also?
![Page 146: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/146.jpg)
You´re dead right it does.
l´ll take the flowers.
Why should you do that?
Wouldn´t that make you
subject to gossip?
Gossip don´t worry me.
l´ve known Seales since kindergarten.
l´ll take the flowers.
![Page 147: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/147.jpg)
l wouldn´t if l were you.
l´ve been looking for you.
There´s a lady to see you.
Mrs. Dare.
And by the way, l´ve canceled
all outings for your class.
Why?
The adult approach hasn´t worked.
![Page 148: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/148.jpg)
lt´d have been better
to let things be.
You take your boys in for P.T.
until l get a replacement.
l´m sorry to disturb you, Sir.
lt´s about Pam.
l´m Mrs. Dare.
What can l do for you?
Would you have a seat?
Would you talk to her, Sir?
l´m sure she´d listen to you.
![Page 149: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/149.jpg)
- She´s always talking about you.
- What´s the problem?
She always stays out
late at night, Sir.
Often she doesn´t get home
till past .
She never says where she´s been.
She´s a big girl.
l´m worried about her.
She won´t listen to me.
![Page 150: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/150.jpg)
l´m just a teacher, Mrs. Dare.
l know she´d listen to you.
lt´s always ´´Sir said this´´
or ´´Sir said that. ´´
See, she won´t listen to me.
She just won´t.
Why doesn´t her father
talk with her?
We´re divorced.
![Page 151: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/151.jpg)
He´s up north somewhere.
He doesn´t...
lt´s not wrong to...
When your marriage breaks up,
life doesn´t end, does it?
Please talk to her, Sir.
l´m frightened for her.
You never know what sort
of trouble she can get into.
![Page 152: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/152.jpg)
Please.
All right, l will.
Thank you.
Morning, Sir.
Hello, love.
- Morning.
- How are you? How´s the kids?
Hello, guv!
![Page 153: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/153.jpg)
Hello, Sir.
lt´s a lovely day, isn´t it?
Your kid ain´t top of the class.
My, you look as if
you´ve won the pools.
Better!
l got me a job.
A real one for when school ends.
Assistant engineer
in a factory in the Midlands.
![Page 154: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/154.jpg)
They even sent me the fare!
That´s marvelous.
lt´s not that good,
but it´s a start after so long.
Do you think
she´ll take the flowers?
l don´t know.
Go in. Sir wants you.
![Page 155: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/155.jpg)
Sit down.
l´d like to talk to you.
Has my mum been in?
The funeral was Saturday, : .
About my mum, Sir?
She´s very worried about you,
Miss Dare.
Couldn´t you call me Pamela?
![Page 156: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/156.jpg)
l think not, for the moment.
She says that
you´ve been staying out late.
l´ve just been to Gran´s.
Just around the corner, not far.
Why haven´t you told your mother?
She doesn´t care about me.
You know that´s not true.
![Page 157: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/157.jpg)
You´re not in trouble, are you?
Nowadays that´s only for fools,
isn´t it?
We´re the luckiest kids,
the luckiest generation...
...that´s ever been, aren´t we?
We´re the first to be really free
to enjoy life if we want...
...without fear.

What is the trouble?
lf you don´t want to talk,
say the word.
lt doesn´t bother me.
lt was all right
up till about a year ago.
Of course, l miss Daddy.
He was wonderful.
But it´s just one of those things.
![Page 159: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/159.jpg)
Mum works up in a dress shop
on the West End.
And we got on fine.
Then men friends started
calling on her.
You know what neighbors are like.
That´s all.
There´s nothing else to tell.
She doesn´t like me.
l´m in the way.
![Page 160: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/160.jpg)
She´s young and pretty, isn´t she?
l´ll be glad to leave school
and be on my own.
Obviously, your mother loves you.
And you owe her much more
than any teacher.
l think you´re wrong about her.
Did she tell you that l found her
with one of her friends?
![Page 161: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/161.jpg)
At home? At my home?
No, l bet she didn´t,
but she was!
l can´t solve your problems for you.
But staying out late won´t help.
lt helps me.
l can´t stand the sight of her!
And if you were me,
you´d feel the same.
l´m in no position to judge.
l know people make mistakes.
![Page 162: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/162.jpg)
You´re saying it´s my fault?
Forgiveness is the gift of God.
People make mistakes.
lt´s up to you to make peace.
- Why should l? L´ve done nothing.
- Grow up.
Give her another chance.
Why are you taking her side?
![Page 163: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/163.jpg)
You´re wrong not to give her a chance.
Everybody deserves that.
l thought you´d understand.
l thought l could trust you.
But you´re just as Denham said.
l´m not taking the bloody flowers!
All right.
Let´s line up here
in the center.
Could we box first today, please?
![Page 164: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/164.jpg)
Why?
lt would make a change.
Just sort yourselves in pairs now.
Do you mind having a go with me?
Sapiano´s hurt his wrist.
That´s right. L sprained it.
l think you ought to wait and have a go
at Potter or one of the others.
![Page 165: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/165.jpg)
He´ll be done in, Sir.
l don´t mind having
a punch-out with you.
l think you´d better
forget that for today.
Let´s go!
Let´s go.
Stay where you are!
![Page 166: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/166.jpg)
Put your head down.
Collect the gloves and put them back.
The rest of you,
line up for vaulting.
Put your head down.
You all right?
- Come over here for a minute.
- L´m all right.
l think l´ll go wash up.
![Page 167: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/167.jpg)
You all right, mate?
Are you sure?
Can l ask you something?
- How many times did you hit me?
- Once.
l´m sorry,
l didn´t mean to hurt you.
l lost my temper.
![Page 168: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/168.jpg)
l was meaning to hurt you.
You did.
You´re pretty good.
Why didn´t you hit me again?
Why didn´t you fight?
You had me easy.
l´ve been after you
since you got here.
Are you afraid or something?
![Page 169: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/169.jpg)
Hitting you wouldn´t solve much,
would it?
lt´s the truth.
l don´t understand you at all.
What´s a barrow?
A barrow? With fruit on it.
A barrow!
You was wrong about Potts.
Yes, from his point of view,
at his age, l was.
![Page 170: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/170.jpg)
- The girls was right about the gossip.
- From their point of view.
What other point is there?
You have to figure that out
for yourself.
Would you like a job teaching
the youngsters how to box?
l´ll speak with Mr. Florian.
There will be some money for you.
![Page 171: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/171.jpg)
Me? A bleeding teacher?
lt´s important the youngsters
know how to defend themselves.
Why are you doing this?
Good luck with your barrow.
What´s the matter?
You going to a bleeding wedding?
You don´t half pong, Potts!
- What´s up with you, Fats?
![Page 172: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/172.jpg)
- Nothing, Bert.
Another week
and we´ll be through here.
l ain´t got a job yet.
You had the bleeder yesterday.
Lucky punch.
You got eyes in back of your head.
He could have done me
with one hand behind his back.
![Page 173: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/173.jpg)
And none of your bleeding here.
There´s ladies present.
What Sir said about the truth,
it´s kind of scary, isn´t it?
Good morning.
About the party,
we´ve got a group and all.
And the girls is fixing the grub.
You coming?
You inviting me?
![Page 174: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/174.jpg)
Yeah, you´re invited.
Thank you.
lf l can, l certainly will.
What you said is right,
about a man making up his own mind.
My goodness!
You certainly look lovely.
Thank you.
![Page 175: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/175.jpg)
Would you dance with me tonight?
Of course.
But nothing too fast.
l am getting too old for that.
We´ll make it special.
Promise?
Promise.
Thank you.
![Page 176: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/176.jpg)
Would you call me Pamela tonight?
Pamela.
Thank you.
Excuse me a minute, Bert.
lt´s Pam.
- You look marvelous!
- You look great!
- Where´s the other earring?
- Lt´s the thing.
![Page 177: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/177.jpg)
l want to talk to the group.
Come with me?
- Why?
- Come on, l´ll tell you.
Good evening.
l hear you´re leaving.
lt´s a pity.
l´m sorry about that.
You´re damn good.
![Page 178: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/178.jpg)
You´ve done wonders for this show.
Thank you very much.
Anybody can be an engineer,
but teaching this mob is...
l wish l had your gift.
Why so serious, Mark?
Good God, it´s Weston!
![Page 179: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/179.jpg)
Wrap up, Clinty.
Well, l´m damned!
He wasn´t giving you
a hard time, was he?
On the contrary.
Will you wave your magic wand
and make me sweet again?
Nothing to do with me.
A fine lad.
![Page 180: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/180.jpg)
Your hand´s in this, all right.
lf you must leave,
go to another school.
You can´t waste your talent
on electronics.
Damn!
l swore l wouldn´t interfere.
Would you like some more?
- Who made it?
- L did.
![Page 181: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/181.jpg)
lt´s salad North Quay,
one of Sir´s special recipes.
lt´s bloody marvelous, Barbara.
l mean, Miss Pegg.
Thank you, Mr. Weston,
l´m sure.
Actually, l don´t like it.
l think it´s terrible, don´t you?
Blimey, l´m hot!
![Page 182: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/182.jpg)
Thank you.
Excuse me, Sir.
l got the job l wanted.
That´s wonderful.
- What is it?
- Pageboy at the Hilton.
He can´t wait to get
all that Yankee money.
You´re right there.
![Page 183: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/183.jpg)
l don´t want to be
a pageboy all me life.
Will you help me get
into night school?
l´d be glad to.
Ta, Sir.
You ain´t half a dolly, miss.
Ready, Pam.
![Page 184: To Sir With Love](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042604/577cc0e11a28aba711917593/html5/thumbnails/184.jpg)
