How Bathurst High acts on child sex abuse claims

Instead of informing the authorities about suspected child sex abuse, Bathurst High implemented a policy of go quietly and that will be the end of the matter.

Peter Street was the subject of allegations of sexually assaulting young students at the school for many years. He was told if he went quietly the allegations would not be referred to the Police. Street is now a taxi driver.

Patrick Sinclair was proven to be using Facebook and Bebo to communicate with students outside of school, inviting them to parties and telling them they were sexy. It was discovered he had sex south a number of students. Gaye Dunshea and Geiff Hastings told him if he left quietly they wouldn't report him. He now works at All Saints School.
