    The Sessions Court correctly found the defendants owed a duty of care and breached it by failing to take adequate and effective measures (including refusing relocation) to prevent repeated bullying; the appellate court found no basis to overturn the factual findings under the 'plainly wrong' test and therefore dismissed the appeal, affirming the damages and costs awarded below.
