424. St. Teresa’s College, Australia

St. Teresa’s College in Australia was mentioned in the media after suicides among former students. A principal faced charges of indecent treatment of children under the age of 17.

There has not falled any verdict in the case yet but based on the number of suicides it must be safe to state that it could not have been fun to be there as a student at the time where the alleged abuse took place.
