Set at the fictional public school of Eckleton, the story centres upon one of the school houses called Kay's, the riotous boys therein, its tactless, unpopular master Mr Kay, and Kennedy, who becomes the new head boy. The story features practical jokes, fighting between the boys, burglaries, politics amongst the houses of the school, a trip to an army-style camp, and plenty of cricket, rugby, and other school sports.
