20 private schools face ruinous child sex abuse claims Empty 20 private schools face ruinous child sex abuse claims

MORE than 20 schools face crippling compensation claims from dozens of child sex abuse victims who have come forward in the wake of the Jimmy Savile scandal.

They include some of the country’s most expensive fee-paying schools and institutions attended by Nick Clegg, Boris Johnson and Tony Blair.

The allegations range from rape to fondling, and date from the 1950s to the 1990s

One firm, Pannone, is acting for former pupils at a dozen prep boarding schools in England, said lawyer Alan Collins.

Another firm, AO Advocates, has claimants from 10 private schools and law firm Slater & Gordon is representing up to 20 former pupils at Ashdown House in East Sussex, the former prep school of Johnson, the mayor of London, where several staff are alleged to have committed 'very serious abuse' on children aged 7-13 during the 1970's
