Storyline: It is the start of the Chalet School's second term at Plas Howell, the graceful Queen Anne mansion on the English-Welsh border, and with the new school year come new challenges, new mistresses and a new Head Girl. Robin Humphries, sixteen years old and a member of the Sixth Form, is astounded to learn that she has been chosen to follow in the footsteps of Gisela Marani, Juliet Carrick and the others - including her own beloved sister Joey Maynard. How will she compare to the admired and respected Head Girls who had gone before? A naturally modest girl, Robin is overwhelmed by her unexpected promotion. 'How will I ever measure up to Gisela and the rest?' she thought anxiously. 'Everyone says Jo was the best Head Girl the School ever had but they were all first rate and I can't possibly be good enough...I never dreamt that I might be Head one day- I'm simply not ready for this!' Before she has an opportunity to worry too much, however, she is flung headlong into the hurly-burly of life at a busy boarding school. Naughty Junior, troubled Seniors and unruly Middles await her-and life is made all the more complicated when Joey's youngest daughter Margot becomes dangerously ill...
