ULPT Request - abuser gets off without any time required to be served.

I was sexually abused by a (at the time) fellow student at my state run school for about 3 years. The court process has been long, and just concluded on Friday. From the time I reported it (as well as the other girls) we were under strict rules of where we could go in the school and during events and such like. Very little internal support was offered. Even for my last music ensemble performance ever, he joined the group on stage with no warning to me. His sentence is the equivalent of parole for 3 years, with the first half being stricter than the latter half. He did not show any of us mercy while he abused us. He did not allow us to finish our education at that school peacefully. Right now, because the judge (who is renowned for giving light sentences, focusing on the perpetrators future) decided that no conviction should be recorded, he is studying to be a teacher at uni. I am terrified for his future students. As well as this, many staff members wrote letters of character for his sentencing, up to and including the principal which does feel highly unethical. How can I stop him from hurting anyone else again, let him feel the pain I feel, and deal with the teachers who felt that a rapist who had already been found guilty at that point had such strong character that he should be given character references? QLD, Australia. I do want to go as nuclear as possible. I have spent longer in psych wards from Cptsd this year alone than he has seen the inside of a court room let alone a jail cell. I cannot see a future for myself without fear. The fear I hold for his future students is immense.
