Description A status-driven headmaster of an undistinguished school hopes seven of his seniors can make it to Oxford or Cambridge. Intellectually sophisticated and gleefully bright, they owe their erudition to Hector, an eccentric teaching nearing retirement, whose largely unfocussed teaching emphasises learning for its own sake.
