About this deal

When a Filipina domestic worker is arrested for her employer’s murder, all Singapore seems to think she is guilty – except for a trio of unlikely sleuths, who set out to find the real culprit and exonerate their countrywoman. Marsh Green Primary School in Wigan is one of the schools that participated in the study. Being recognised as a nurturing school through the National Nurturing Schools Award, they already used the Boxall Profile extensively to gain a detailed understanding of the children they identified as needing additional support. Donita tries to juggle her dating life with the increasingly tyrannical demands of her employer, Fann Poh Choo, who subjects her to demeaning searches whenever she leaves the house and confiscates her phone. Oh this is great. A howl of rage, mostly against the abusive, exploitative treatment of Filipino women domestic workers in Singapore, but also against shitty men, the murderous regime of Duterte in the Philippines, religious bigots, homophobic and transphobic bigots, the spoiled selfish rich, and the systems that allow all the above to get away with ruining people's lives. Nurtureuk released the findings of a study in which primary schools assessed the social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs of every pupil in their school and found that one in three pupils in the pilot schools had a moderate or severe level of SEMH needs.
