Allowing rich people to privatise education, especially where it lacks compassion, specialist training, and simple humanity, is problematic. Those who have been named should be ashamed and barred from being around children, including their own. Someone needs to help those children. The council needs to do better.

Who is talking to the children and families? Where are their advocates and champions? What specific actions can be taken to ensure accountability and protect the children affected? Just a reminder of the government's responsibility : quality assuring and ensuring establishments are regulated demanding high quality education and equity for all children by holding the community and stakeholders in settings accountable.
