This account of the state of secondary schooling in Britain is concerned primarily with the plight of "anonymous" pupils who offer neither challenge nor difficulty to their teachers and therefore pass through their schooling largely unnoticed.

Invisible Children by James Pye

Discussing the plight of anonymous pupils, those who compulsively disguise their potential and elude the teachers' interest, this compelling account of the present condition of British secondary schools uses the author's experience as a teacher to tackle the questions often ignored in current debates on education. Pye presents a series of vivid case studies to highlight his discussion of the dynamics of teacher-student relationships, the constraints that hinder teachers' intentions, sex stereotyping in schools, and the chances for successful learning to take place in large classes.
