Thames Valley police have
confirmed that they are conducting an investigation into allegations of sexual
abuse at Carmel College, the now closed Jewish public school.
Former Carmel students have claimed that they were
sexually abused while they were at the school.
Several alleged victims, who studied at the
co-educational school in Oxfordshire, have claimed that at least two tutors
sexually abused students between the 1970s and 1990s.
A spokeswoman for the police said: “We are a long
way from bringing charges— there are many people to speak to.”
Carmel College, which was
latterly co-educational, was founded by Rabbi Dr Yaakov Kopul Rosen in 1948 as
a Jewish public school. It closed in 1997 due to lack of funding
Be very careful commenting on this - there is a police investigation under way and nobody would want to hamper it.
