A former pupil of Edinburgh Academy has told the BBC that the school was "a cesspit of sadism and paedophilia".
Kenneth said he was targeted for frequent, vicious beatings "usually with a sporting implement called a clacken which is like a large wooden bat".
He described his time at the private school as "hell on earth".
Kenneth said he had decided to speak out after broadcaster Nicky Campbell told how he too was abused there.
An 83-year old retired teacher from the school is currently fighting extradition from South Africa but, according to court documents, has admitted abusing schoolboys in Edinburgh.
