Cranbrook School is currently under investigation after allegations surfaced concerning abuse within its walls. A recent report highlighted claims of a toxic culture, sexual misconduct, drawing attention to the school’s handling of such issues. The issues that persist at Cranbrook School and the system shows a vicious cycle.
The abuses experienced at Cranbrook School was recognised by the royal commission and the school with past failings. While many schools have worked hard to improve their practices and policies, the scars left by past abuses remain.
