Sevenoaks School has agreed to settle out of court a claim that one of its high profile teachers, now dead, sexually abused a 12 year-old boy who was one of his pupils.
The claimant, now aged 48, was a pupil at Sevenoaks School between 1976 and 1983. He now suffers from a schizoid personality disorder with symptoms of Asperger’s Syndrome.
He alleges that the teacher, Gerd Sommerhoff, befriended him and invited him to his flat in the school grounds. It was there that the abuse is said to have taken place.
