Pupils at a private school, sometimes described as the “Catholic Eton”, have allegedly filmed themselves skinning a cat alive, stoning birds, and beating younger boys after wrapping them in cling film or duct tape a whistleblower has claimed.
Rachel Ashley, a former housemother at the £25,000 per year Oratory School in Woodcote, Reading, made the allegations during an employment tribunal, where she said her warnings were ignored, with the headmaster exclaiming:
“Boys will be boys”
Ashley told the tribunal, where she is claiming for constructive dismissal, that she felt she finally had to leave because of the danger posed by one 15-year-old boy who armed himself with weapons including flame-throwers and nailed gloves.
The headmaster of the school, former Royal Marine Clive Dytor, is yet to give evidence.

Well there`s the birth of our next lot of serial killers.
Not only should the spoilt little shits be banged up for this, the headmaster should also be prosecuted for not doing anything about it.
Great the school for the future sociopath and serial killers. You as a parent must be proud of your children future when it shows in his resume that he was doctrine in the fine arts of sadism
Lessons will b learned, and the school will protect its own miscreants!
So much for the integrity of private schooling…………………….
