A review into the New Zealand Broadcasting School has uncovered a culture of bullying and harassment, prompted by media reports of a toxic learning environment last year.

Allegations about sexual harassment and other inappropriate behaviour from staff towards students were unfounded.

The review's 60 recommendations have been accepted in full by Ara Institute of Canterbury, which the Broadcasting School sits within.
