Beaumaris Primary School child sexual abuse inquiry expands

The Victorian Government's Board of Inquiry ("the inquiry") into child sexual abuse claims in Beaumaris Primary School and other government schools has taken a significant turn as it expands its scope to include six additional schools and uncovers allegations against two previously unnamed teachers. The inquiry, chaired by Kathleen Foley SC, has been steadfast in its mission to bring justice to abuse victims.

The expansion of the inquiry has recently been discussed in an ABC news article, "Beaumaris Primary School child sexual abuse inquiry expanded as two more alleged perpetrators named".

Expanding the scope of the inquiry

Initially, the inquiry encompassed 18 schools. The scope has now broadened to 24 schools, with the inclusion of Bundalong South Primary School, Chelsea Heights Primary School, Cowes Primary School, Drouin South Primary School, Kunyung Primary School, and Warragul Primary School. This expansion underscores the gravity of the issue.
