"Cranbrook in Sydney’s east is one of the most elite boys schools in Australia.
On Monday night, the ABC’s Four Corners program aired claims some female
teachers had been bullied by male staff and sexually harassed by students.

Amid the school’s decision to go fully co-ed by 2028, there are concerns about
whether Cranbrook will be a safe space for girls.

In a statement to the ABC, Cranbrook said its “current staff, including female
staff, overwhelmingly support the School, its values and its culture”. It also
said it has appointed teacher Daisy Turnbull to prepare for coeducation and
“support the furtherance of gender equality” at the school.

What do schools need to do in order to be genuinely gender inclusive?"
