Overview
- UGEL Cusco is investigating three alleged sexual‑abuse incidents reported to have occurred inside schools, and the Gerencia Regional de Educación has requested formal reports on the administrative progress of those probes.
- One case dates to 2024 at the Gran Unidad Escolar Inca Garcilaso de la Vega where a 14‑year‑old was reportedly attacked and UGEL has opened an administrative inquiry into four teachers for possible omissions in duty of care.
- A second case from 2024 involves an eight‑year‑old at a private school who was allegedly abused by adolescent peers and whose family filed a formal complaint in 2026.
- The Ministerio Público and the Poder Judicial are conducting parallel criminal investigations and authorities say immediate‑care protocols for victims have been applied.
- Officials are keeping case details confidential to protect minors and have sought documents to explain why some administrative procedures have been pending for more than a year, a step that could affect accountability for school staff and institutions.
