The first member of the board at Herlufsholm has resigned.
She is Noemi Katznelson. She became a member of the board in 2019 as an extern (not affiliated with the school) expert, who specialize in research in the well-being of young people. I.e. the social issues young people face, like loneliness. She is also a member of the panel of expert for the Mary Foundation.
It was the documentary and the revelations in that, that led her to resign, she claims.
- The thoughts going through my mind right now is that she was brought in to help combat bullying. A thing the chairman of the boards claims they tried to do something about around that time.
So either she was not up to the job and/or her recommendations were not implemented.
Or she was given a different picture of what went on at the school, than what actually happened. I.e. as a member of the board, she was misled or not fully informed of incidents.
Or she wants to distance herself from Herlufsholm.
She writes today:
Der er elevfortællinger og oplevelser, som i omfang og karakter fuldstændig overstiger det, tidligere sager havde indikeret,« skriver Katznelson.
»Jeg fik undervejs en fornemmelse af nogle kulturelle og strukturelle udfordringer på skolen, men der tegnede sig ikke et egentligt mønster for mig, ligesom skolens trivselsundersøgelser ikke viser et så rystende billede som TV 2s dokumentar,«
"There are (in the docu) narratives from pupils and experiences which in scale and character completely exceeds that what previous cases had indicated.
I had over time (presumably while she was a member of the board) a sense of some cultural and structural challenges at the school, but there was no pattern emerging for me as such, just as the investigations regarding the well-being (at the school) does not show so disturbing an image as (is presented) in the documentary by TV2."
TV2 being the second major TV-network in DK.
