INVESTIGATION INTO HOLLAND PARK SCHOOL

The Issue

We need an independent investigation, led by a QC barrister, into the toxic culture at Holland Park School as it applies to students. 

An open letter outlining serious safeguarding failures has been published by 117 former students on formerhps.wordpress.com. The concerns outlined include emotional abuse, inappropriate behaviour by staff towards students, mishandling of peer-on-peer sexual abuse, and off-rolling of children because they are mentally ill or victims of sexual assault. A Guardian article about the school was published on the same day. 

Our open letter called for an independent investigation, but this call has not been answered. We need this investigation because the school is currently unsafe for children. So far, the majority of the governing body have ignored us.

Please sign our petition to protect the over a thousand children trapped there from suffering the same abuse and trauma that we experienced. Without an investigation, they have no hope.
