I missed this in the 70s (just started university and did not have a TV) and only discovered it in 2020 on DVD.
As a recently retired teacher I think schools now lack the spirit of Miss Jean Brodie - a true educator who recognises the individuality of her girls. No teaching to the test or league tables for Miss Brodie - education means inspiration, curiosity and a desire to learn.
Geraldine McEwan is truly wonderful in the title role but she is surrounded by a wealth of acting talent - not least from the girls in her class.
The series is much too short. Get the DVD and watch it!
