Re: Elizabeth Cairncross
It is impossible to implement a process that is flawless. But it really isn't difficult to make a decent effort and at least have a policy. For example, on the public Web you can find as an example, the checklist the NHS advises trusts to consider for non exec board members: "We must be able to...

Re: Elizabeth Cairncross
If there is any particular failing that has become apparent to me, it is that bodies responsible for appointing people to governance roles appear in some cases to undertake little or no due diligence. Certainly in the case of the Dean of Salisbury Cathedral and the Bishop of Bristol, in neither case...

Re: Elizabeth Cairncross
Please see clarifications: Someone was sufficiently concerned to trigger an investigation whilst she was incumbent? It was a personal choice of mine and solely mine to investigate her propriety to be in a governance role and that was because I became aware the Ms. Cairncross had been appointed chair...

Re: Elizabeth Cairncross
Unfortunately no it cannot. In order to obtain access to it, I had to approach the trial Judge, Christine Henson QC and state my reason. The reason I gave was that I wished to investigate her fitness for a role as Chair of Governors at Salisbury Cathedral School. I undertook not to distribute the tr...

Re: Elizabeth Cairncross
I think it might be time for a word to the wise. This issue is clearly very important to some of our contributors for reasons which are entirely understood and, I think, fully justified by the cases that have been prosecuted to date. It would, however, be sensible to remember that this forum is acc...

Re: Aiglon College
Rob Thank you. I have followed the cases on this forum although not through reading court transcripts or any primary sources. I don't dispute that what happened was a disgrace, wholly recognise the effect it must have had on the victims, and fully support the belated action taken against the perpet...

Re: The silence of Elizabeth Cairncross
Does anyone happen to know if Ms. Cairncross made subsequent public statement about not reporting the numerous allegations of criminality against Karim and others to the authorities? I would also be grateful if anyone who can shed light (either positive or negative) about Ms. Cairncross' role at Chr...

Re: Poulton, Cairncross, Sillett
Many thanks. I will do a little digging. Some sentencing are published verbatim. In my work as a JP we get emails from high profile cases or ones of general interest. Not sure if all are recorded. Will research

Re: Poulton, Cairncross, Sillett
Does anyone happen to know if the Judge's sentencing remarks from the Karim trial were published? I would be keen to read a copy of them.

Re: What were your thoughts about the theatre?
It was a great palce. i was at CH from 1978-1984 and perhaps witnessed the wonder years of Duncan Noel-Patton productions. I even acted in 3 myself. It was indeed a massive stage and depsite the awful red benches and red surroundings, the quality of the performances on stage soon put to rest any po...

Re: Poulton, Cairncross, Sillett
Folks, I am new on the forum but have read some threads with interest having been at CH from 77-82 and specifically in Barnes B where Peter Webb was one of my house tutors and Roger Martin was at the time the Housemaster of Barnes A across the hall. I note on the forum many references to Elizabeth C...
