Summerhill (2008): Cast

Summerhill, a 70‑year‑old progressive school led by Zoe Redhead, gives pupils equal say in its constitution. OFSTED inspector Wharton decries it as wasteful, though Myrtle is charmed by its atmosphere. In court barrister Geoffrey Robertson after a pupil’s tip‑off exposes Wharton’s claim that the school closure was a formality. The school saved, Myrtle joins the staff, and the children launch a pirate ship with a ‘Freedom’ banner, rewarding students whose futures were uncertain.
