Inquiry into predator teacher's abuse of boys: Parents welcome case review into how William Vahey got away with crimes
2014
Overview
Dame Moira Gibb, a social work expert who led a national inquiry into standards following the death of \"Baby P\" in 2007, is to lead a serious case review into the missed opportunities to stop the abuse. Between 2009 and 2013, [William Vahey], an American humanities teacher, used sedatives to render boys drowsy on excursions, then took them back to their rooms and abused them while they were unconscious. The FBI has described him as one of the most prolific sexual predators it has ever seen. The Observer has learned that, as well as being entrusted to take field trips abroad, when he abused boys, Vahey was appointed to teach sex education to 11-year-olds in a role that involved guiding pupils on \"what conduct is questionable and should be reported\". The role required him to explain to pupils the appropriate boundaries of behaviour and language between adults and students. The school confirmed that he was given the role of personal social education adviser in 2010. [Chris Woodhead] said: \"Whether or not Vahey's appointment to the role of [personal social education] adviser was appropriate depends on the nature of the complaints made about him by members of staff and whether these complaints were made to school management. We do not yet have answers to either of those questions.\"
