Staff were filmed hitting and kicking pupils at a special school and leaving them in their urine, the BBC has found.
Despite the school proving abuse in so-called “calming rooms”, some staff are still employed there and have not been barred from working with children.
Parents say they have not been allowed to see the footage and were misled about the use of isolation.
Pupils were left alone in the rooms for up to four hours, with footage showing them naked, sitting in urine and eating crumbs off the floor
Children were “slammed”, kicked and hit with force “without obvious justification”, while rhino pads - often used in rugby training - were deployed to push pupils inside
The HR consultant identified more than 20 CCTV clips of excessive force and records of police notes described possible assaults - but despite this the Crown Prosecution Service did not recommend prosecutions
A whistleblower who worked at the school describes what they saw on CCTV as “torture” - and says the rooms were worse than cells
The fuck does this even mean?
Probably something along the lines of, “Dumb American. Back in my day we beat sense into the autists and kids with down syndrome. Kids these days are too soft, only thing that’ll cure an autism is a good kick to the head.”
Quite the opposite, sweetheart
The proper response to a crime like this is punishment with rehabilitation
The American response is “aN eYE fEr An EyE oooeee muh FREEDOM bible said so”
It’s quite barbaric
What? You put them in solitary just like they’re putting kids in solitary. That way they learn what it’s like to do that to someone else and then they won’t do it again!
Boom! Instant rehab!
Rehab works. You can see how your system doesn’t with kids that bully other kids at school, they’re bullied by parent or someone else close to them.
I’m like 80% sure that comment was sarcastic.
