Three students from Christchurch Girls High School have made formal complaints to police of incidents of sexual abuse.

This follows the release on Monday of a survey of 700 students from the school - 59 per cent of whom reported experiencing sexual harassment with 20 students described being raped by individuals or groups.

Police from the specialist Child Protective Team have been on site at Christchurch girls high since Monday morning when the survey was released.
