The Daily Mail has published a major story today concerning Derek Slade, a former boarding school head who sexually and physically abused boy pupils and was today given a 21-year jail term.
Slade, who had no teaching qualifications, hit boys with a slipper, a table tennis bat and his bare hand.
Prosecutors said Slade meted out 'brutal' beatings. He had hit boys with a slipper, a table tennis bat and his bare hand, ordered youngsters to write about 'whackings I have had' and given 'kickings' to boys who upset him.
Have any former pupils of St. James / St Vedast who suffered physical abuse at the hands of teaching staff considered launching private prosecutions against their tormentors - possibly using 'No Win - No Fee' Solicitors?
