THE former head and deputy head of Copland Community School have been bailed after their arrest on suspicion of fraud yesterday.

Sir Alan Davies, Dr Richard Evans and a 50-year-old woman were interviewed by detectives over alleged misappropriation of school funds.

They were bailed to return in late September.

The arrests followed a long investigation by officers, who were first handed allegations of financial mismanagement in January last year and launched a full investigation over the summer.
