The child sex abuse royal commission’s probe into an Aboriginal school in Alice Springs has raised questions about who is ultimately responsible for student and staff welfare at non-government schools, a former staff member said.
On Monday, the ABC reported the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse requested more than two decades of information from the Lutheran Schools Association about Yirara College in Central Australia.
There is no information to suggest that the inquiry is investigating any specific allegations of child sexual abuse at the school.
Karl Bajzik worked as boarding house parent at Yirara College for about 18 months, from late 2010, and met with royal commission staff about the school in Alice Springs in January.
