Head of school at centre of Rotherham teen suicide investigation did not speak to review
The headteacher of a school at the centre of an investigation into teenage suicides in Rotherham refused to be interviewed for an independent report, it has been revealed.
The school was not named in the report but is known to be Wickersley School and Sports College, an academy with more than 2,000 pupils whose executive headteacher is David Hudson.
It follows criticism of the school’s response to the suicides of Truman Edley and Oliver King by their bereaved parents last year, as well as similar concerns being raised in the new report commissioned by Rotherham Council.
