The Royal Commission has reviewed the nature and extent of child sexual abuse in schools, with alarming findings. Almost one in three of all survivors heard during the Commission’s private sessions were abused in a school setting as a child, with three-quarters of those (75.9 per cent) abused in non-government schools, including Catholic and Independent schools.
Waverley College has faced a number of claims from former students alleging they were abused during their time at school.
Commins Hendriks acts on behalf of survivors of sexual abuse which occurred at Waverley College between the years of 1976 and 1978.
