Today, the school has over 1,300 students.197 St Paul’s does not have boarding facilities. St Paul’s is operated by the Anglican Church of Australia and is owned by the Corporation of the Synod of the Diocese of Brisbane.
During the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse, St. Paul’s School was given special attention due to the numerous allegations the school had received over child sexual abuse. This was in particular to the offences committed by two serial offenders who were employed at the school – Mr Kevin Lynch (school counsellor) and Mr Gregory Knight (music teacher). These two perpetrators were subsequently charged, and in Gregory Knight’s case, sentenced to jail in the Northern Territory.
Moody Law has represented and is still representing clients who were victims of sexual abuse by Kevin Lynch at the school. We invite former students, teachers and parents to contact us to tell us confidentially what information they may have, and we will explain what options are available to help with these cases.
