You assume they had the same idea of education as we do. Sure it was wrong but they really believed these kids would be better off being immersed in western ways.
They possessed ancient knowledge nearly thousands of years old about why doing unto others as they'd have done to them was so important. What they believe doesn't matter compared to what they knew. They would have known it was wrong during the first minute of the first step of the process in the distress of kids being separated from their parents on the beach prior to disappearing onto a boat.
You seem to be assuming human beings had no idea what inhumanity meant back then. I suspect Neanderthals had a better idea of what inhumanity meant.
