Most educators are remembered in passing – their legacies often confined to classroom walls and fleeting school years.

Teachers for Life introduces us to two educators who seize this very opportunity.

Fred is a small boy who lives with his mum and dad and big brother, Jim. After a farm visit with his school, Fred develops an itch.

When Jim starts teasing him and convincing him that he really is turning into a chicken, Fred becomes even more troubled. These troubles are greatly increased when his mother summons the doctor to examine him.
