      Step inside one of Britain''s most renowned prisons...

      During her time as a prison teacher Mim Skinner met people from all walks of life - what united them, was that they had committed a serious crime. But Mim''s job was not to judge them, it was to teach.

With high drama but also candid humour The Prison Teacher is full of eye-opening stories of those without a voice, revealing the human side of our country''s most controversial institution.
