A Newbury school has been exonerated by an independent review following claims made during a court case earlier in the year.
In April the principal at Mary Hare School, Tony Shaw, announced that Sir Roger Singleton would conduct the “evidential and exhaustive” investigation into safeguarding at the school for the deaf.
Now, in his report, Sir Roger, chairman of the Independent Safeguarding Authority, has concluded that the school’s portrayal during the court hearing as a place where promiscuity was condoned has not been supported by the evidence.
Sir Roger has stated in his findings: “The picture of rampant sexual behaviour at Mary Hare is not one which I have been able to substantiate.”
