Hi Bella, The more moderate voices on this BB have many times stated that there was some value in the teachings received whilst at the SES. I for one take there to be no argument about that. I am very glad that your son is left with a non SES member when you are called away on weekends as it allows ...

Just a thought, Maybe the rich people were looking for an exclusive gentlemans club to practice their sado-masochistic tendencies and found the sub/dom atmosphere intoxicating. Oh yes, and the promise of a virginal and compliant young woman to serve them and then give them children cant have been ov...

Hi All, I was a member of SES in London and attended both St Vedast and ST James day schools. I would imagine if you came to the SES as an adult it would be quite a different experience than being sent to it at the age of 8. The reason why a number of people are complaining about the Day schools so ...

Shout. I AM SHOCKED, SHOCKED AT YOUR POST. YOU MEAN THE SES HAS DONE FOR THE HARRINGTON?

SHAME UPON SHAME!

I knew the SES was anti fun but closing pubs is a step too far...

Sadly ET I think you may be right to be paranoid. Given the link between SES and ST J and Board of Governors and Headmaster I think it is highly likey that this information will find its way back to the SES - after all, the inquiry report is commissioned on behalf of the Board of Governors (who are ...

What were you all expecting...I mean seriously?. This enquiry as it stands is a sick joke and I wholeheartedly agree with Shout's earlier point about being unpaid consultants! The idealistic view that an enquiry - paid for and set up by (and given TOR by) a school that is run by an ex PR man, who is...

Perhaps its like the soldiers that came back from WW2. They didn't feel that the brutality they had experienced could be understood by the folks back home. Society wanted to have heroes not whingers returning from a victory. After all why rock the boat when you have developed a coping mechanism. I t...

Hi All, I've just read the posts on this thread and it occurs to me the opportunity has only just become available to seriously discuss what went on at the schools in the name of 'education'. As such it is unlikely that there will be a uniform concrete response. Surely to have everyone stand 100% be...

Hi Sparks, I dont think anyone in their right mind would condone the abusive behaviour that you extracted from posts in your reply. I do think that you do oversimplify the problem by referring to current legislation/guidance in reference to a problem that started 20 years ago. One of the reasons tha...

Hi Daska, Thanks for your comments. I think I read an earlier post in another forum in which you said you had had negative or diminishing feedback from your therapist. I am sad to hear that at such an important moment you were let down by a judgemental therapist. I would none the less try some other...

Hello everyone, Late for everything as always I have only seen this Board about a month ago, and due to technical difficulties it has taken me til now to post. Reading the posts it is obvious there are people that have been affected very badly by the treatment meted out to them by one or a number of...
