AN exclusive Sydney private school yesterday reached a settlement with a former student who refused to back down on claims she was gang-raped on an overseas study trip. The 18-year-old, known only as "N", alleged she was raped by four men in the Italian town or Sorrento while on a school art tour in October, 2001. She sued Tara Anglican Girls School in the NSW District Court for negligence, claiming the school failed to supervise her properly overseas or other adequate treatment and counselling after the alleged rape.

A TEENAGE girl told a court yesterday how an exclusive Sydney school made her feel alone and isolated after she was gang raped on a school trip to Italy. The girl, now 18, is suing Tara Anglican Girls School for breaching its duty of care over the incident in 2001. The teenager, who can only be identified as "N", claims Tara failed to supervise her properly during the trip or offer adequate treatment and counselling after the alleged rape. She told the NSW District Court being raped by four men on the bonnet of a car in the Italian town of Sorrento was the worst experience of her life, but the teachers chaperoning her offered no emotional support after she told them.
