Pawnshop and Private School

A story about a young girl that had a dream of going to a grammar school and then onto university. She applied herself on-line, was given a bursary, and a place and surprised her mum. However, the high costs of everything else that she required for school put a huge financial burden upon her mum. Hence, the documentary from the Guardian is called "Pawnshop and Private School".

A heartfelt story of how a young girl wished to do great for her mum, and how her mum kept on reminding her of her working class roots. The documentary includes what has happened to the area in which they live in the north of England.
