“I have come to both love and fear Deon Wigget’s voice. His words, so carefully chosen and expertly delivered, also pack the power of a hammer blow. Essential listen for, well, everyone.”

“Deon I want to thank you for your bravery. As a non-conformist I’ve have issues with the obsession of elite schools with their precious heritage and sport. Thank you for making the monsters real and not merely the imaginings of sceptical parents. Spotlight on these boy schools and what they hide...”Read full review »

“My heart breaks for these children, a place where children should be safe seems to be the opposite. Your investigation has uncovered so very much, things have been discovered about people and schools, that never would have come to light without you and your team.”

Let this not be your only story though ... it may just be the one that got in the way of the many others.
The one that had to be told to free up the rest.
Look forward to hearing them .”
