Synopsis [from the teachers.tv site]:
This programme looks at the work of Reem Nashef, an Arab, and Hezzi Schouster, a Jew, co-teachers at a remarkable school in Israel.
It’s the oldest of only four schools in the whole of the country where Jewish and Palestinian children are taught together in their own language.
The programme follows Reem and Hezzi and their grade 5 students through a busy week.
During the week the two teachers work in two languages, translating each other for the children. They talk about the joys and frustrations of working in the Oasis of Peace.
