When private tutor Thomas Arnold becomes headmaster at an English preparatory school for boys, he puts into place a policy of strict punishment against unruliness and bullying. Arnold finds an ally in Tom Brown, a new student who is secretly subjected to abuse by a group of older boys. He eventually plucks up the courage to lead his fellow classmates in an underground rebellion against their tormentors.
