Amid the push for private boys’ schools in Australia to go co-educational, Four Corners investigates if these institutions are safe places for girls.
Sydney’s elite Cranbrook School – where captains of industry and billionaires have studied or send their own children – was repeatedly identified in a petition about allegations of schoolboy sexual assaults.
Now, Four Corners reporter Louise Milligan exposes new allegations, speaking to female staff who have left the school, and investigates a wider history.
