| Roland Peter Wright was led away from court by prison officers |
Roland Peter Wright, 83, of Farnham Royal, Buckinghamshire, abused boys aged between eight and 13 at Caldicott Preparatory School from 1959 to 1970.
His sentencing went ahead despite the death of another former teacher who had been due to appear with him.
Hugh Henry, 82, apparently threw himself under a train on Tuesday.
Judge Joanna Cutts QC told Wright: "These offences were so serious that it is beyond question that only a custodial sentence can be justified.
"I have to sentence you for multiple offending against each of these victims.
"This was prolonged activity, the boys were groomed by a master at a school responsible for their care."
Mr Clegg was a pupil at the school from 1974 until 1980 and was joint head boy in his final year.
When Wright was convicted in December, Mr Clegg said: "I am shocked and appalled by the gross betrayal of trust and violation of childhood innocence that has been shown to have taken place at Caldicott." » | Thursday, February 06, 2014
