Leaked CCTV footage reveals how special school pupils suffered while locked away in so-called ‘calming rooms’ at the Whitefield School in Walthamstow, north London.

A police investigation into the abuse footage, taken inside the special school’s ‘calming rooms’ between 2014 and 2017, ended earlier this year without any charges. However, parents say they have been left to deal with the trauma.
The school says new leadership found the footage after the rooms had been shut and shared it with the police.
