In 1995, Precilla Bennett got a new job in a comprehensive school in Basildon, Essex.
Precilla is black and the pupils were predominantly white and for nearly two years children as young as 11 subjected her to the most awful and sustained racial abuse.
It resulted in her having a nervous breakdown and giving up teaching and she has recently been awarded 拢45,000 damages in a landmark tribunal.
This ruling means that schools now have a duty to protect their staff from discrimination. Precilla tells her story to Jenni.
