Underley Hall School had housed various schools since the 1940’s. Recently a case was opened against employees working there in the 1970’s and 1980’s.
The employees used a lot of brutal force to keep the student in place. A trial was resently started in response to the treatment the children received.
It could not have been fun to be there as a student.
