The TikTok, which involves several students in Villanova College uniform ‘miming’ to the sound of a viral TikTok, outraged the community when it was reported to the school.

In a statement, the College said it was taking the matter seriously, and dealing with it ‘as a priority’.

Principal Mark Stower told The Courier-Mail that the school “takes all concerns about student behaviour seriously” and he was “extremely disappointed” with the students’ behaviour.

“As Principal, I must act in a way which upholds the values of our College, the expectations of the community and also protects the safety and wellbeing of the students involved,” he said.

“Our students are aware of the behaviour norms expected of each and every one of them.”

Mr Stower said he would address the incident with the student body, and reinforce the “current societal expectations with regards to the importance of respect for all people”.

“The College understands and shares the community’s concern in relation to such matters,” he said.

Mr Stower declined to elaborate on whether the students would face a suspension or expulsion, saying for “the privacy of those involved”, he could not comment further.

The post comes at a time of heightened scrutiny on all boys’ schools and an alleged “toxic culture” regarding women, in the wake of a viral petition regarding sexual consent and misogynistic behaviour launched by former Sydney schoolgirl Chanel Contos.

Top Blokes male health foundation’s Rachel Hinds said it was crucial the students involved were held responsible, but that the post was also indicative of widespread issues of a lack of respect towards women, particularly among some elite private boys’ schools.

“They know what they were saying was wrong – and if they don’t, they need to be educated on why it was wrong,” she said.

“We can’t keep saying things like ‘boys will be boys’ or they were just ‘mucking around’ – they need to be held responsible.

“At the same time they shouldn’t be targeted and made scapegoats – it is our culture that needs to change.

“These all boys’ institutions need to take stock and reflect on what is the way forward from here, because it needs to look very difference than what it does today.”

The sound, dubbed from TikTok account @makglass20 was originally created by @smithasog and uploaded to TikTok in July 2019.
