Gordonstoun paid the sums out of court and has not admitted any liability for the alleged attacks
The King’s former school, Gordonstoun, has reached out-of-court settlements totalling more than £500,000 with two ex-pupils who alleged rape, bullying and severe sexual abuse at its junior school in the 1990s.
The stories of Kate (not her real name) and John Findlay were first told in the Observer Magazine in 2015. Kate, who was a scholarship student, alleged she was raped when 13 years old by a gap-year teacher on a school camping trip, while John was drugged, sexually assaulted and photographed in his dormitory bed at Aberlour House, Gordonstoun’s junior school, by a different teacher.
