The handling of sexual assault cases at a Catholic primary school on Queensland’s Darling Downs will be publicly examined in Brisbane next month.

The allegations at St Saviour’s School in Toowoomba will be a case study for the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse.

A teacher from the school was sentenced to 10 years jail in 2010 for the rape and molestation of 13 students.

The children were aged between nine and 10-years-old.
