Catchwords

The learned Sessions Court Judge was correct in holding that the Defendants owed a duty of care to the 2nd Plaintiff and that they had breached that duty. The breach was specifically committed by the Defendants’ failure to implement adequate precautions and preventive measures to avoid, among other things, incidents of harassment and/or bullying against the 2nd Plaintiff. Most significantly, the Defendants failed to take prompt action to prevent the recurrence of such incidents, including their refusal to relocate the 2nd Plaintiff to another class.
