    Good idea, all the parents get together and buy one book and pay for the photocopying of it for each pupil and what are the teachers gonna say about it? They can do nothing about it.

    It was an issue when I was in school in the 80's. Fallons and Folens had the market wrapped up then and still do to an extent. It's a racket but I personally blame the teachers and parents for not pressurising them.
