The History Boys Plot and Cast
This story follows a lively, unruly group of history students at a Yorkshire grammar school as they pursue admission to Oxford or Cambridge. Their efforts are shaped by four very different adults: a maverick English master, a young and shrewd teacher brought in to raise test scores, a grossly outnumbered history teacher, and a headmaster fixated on results. The boys try to pass while caught between these conflicting influences.
