The Age has reported that the Victorian Education Department is facing a multi-million compensation bill over child abuse by convicted paedophile Robert Leonard Morris.

Morris taught in Victorian schools from the mid-1960s until 1980 and sexually abused many children. Rightside Legal is representing thirteen men who as boys were abused by Morris in primary schools at Ringwood and Cranbourne.

In addition to teaching primary aged children, Morris also coached junior sport and was an enthusiastic cub and scout leader for many years.

Although it was 7 months ago that I received the compensation payment, it is only now that I’m feeling the real benefits. This is so unbelievably helpful and nothing I had expected in my life. Life feels very different for me right now. I can’t quite take it in, but I do know that I am grateful to you for the work done.
