Government inspectors have found safeguarding at Ampleforth College to be “inadequate” after the head teacher lost the right to veto which monks resided at the nearby abbey.
Ofsted inspectors also identified instances in which sexual activity took place between vulnerable pupils at the boarding school in North Yorkshire.
They reported that Class A drugs were found and that a 2.30am “breakout” party was held by a group of 81 Year 13 sixth form students which resulted in one of them being taken to hospital to be treated for excess alcohol consumption while another was found unconscious in an orchard.
