The epitaph for this article:-

"A FORMER student who said she woke up every day at the age of 12 wishing she was dead has won her bullying case against a Sydney private girls' school.

Ms Oyston, who was not present for the judgment, sued the college for negligence, contending it breached its duty of care to her."

About time.

Once the student is past the school gate, the school has primary responsibility for the student, and blaming parents is not an excuse for negligence on the part of the teachers.
