The Red House was a children's home in Norfolk that took in hundreds of students in care from across the UK between 1984 and 1998.

It was run by a controversial Danish group called Tvind, operating an unconventional education system - most students from The Red House left without any qualifications.

Now, more than 40 former pupils have come forward with allegations of physical and sexual abuse they say they faced at the home.

On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson speaks to correspondent Alice Porter about what has been uncovered after she travelled to Denmark to track down the organisation behind The Red House and investigate claims it is a cult. And we hear from victims about the alleged abuse faced by students.
