BBC Radio 4’s In Dark Corners gives platform to those who suffered abuse in British private schools
Alex Renton decided to speak out about the abuse he suffered at one of Britain’s elite private schools after reading an article in 2013 that made him realise his abusers could still be teaching – and hurting other children.
Renton says he had made a sort of peace with his horrific schoolboy experiences but decided that day that he nevertheless owed it to others “who might need revenge, relief from the history – or money” to speak out and give them his support.
