It’s thirteen-year-old Septima’s turn to be ‘benefacted’ by Great-Aunt Compton, and that worthy has decided that Septima shall go to school:
“It is quite time that something was done if Septima is ever to be any use at all. She is, I fear, absolutely rough and uncultivated. Also ignorant, I have no doubt, of the first rudiments of education.” So off to the Misses Merrion’s school Septima goes.
School is completely alien to anything Septima has experienced before, and she finds herself in difficulties from the outset. Unknowingly breaking bounds, getting cut off by the tide, cliff-top rescues, an essay competition and new friends all contribute to making this a most exciting first term for Septima.
