Roedean is Britain's most famous public school for girls. Distanced from bright and breezy Brighton on a bleak outcrop of the South
Downs, this famous school has survived and prospered by adapting to the changing social pressures of postwar years. This documentary film conveys what it feels like to be a schoolgirl at Roedean. Against a background of reveille, assembly, lessons, lacrosse and leisure, some of the school's 400 girls describe the pressures and social life, 'crushes' and friendships, conformity and success.
