THE headteacher of a Harrow Weald school has been suspended and is under investigation.
Sue Jones, head of Weald Infants School, in Robin Hood Drive, has been off work since January 25 and Dr Reena Keeble, head of Canon Lane First School, has been parachuted in to help the assistant head steer the ship in her absence.
Keith Holroyd, chair of governors at Weald Infants School, said: “Our head teacher was suspended on January 25.
“An investigation is currently underway and I am unable to comment further until this is concluded.
"The assistant head Mrs Denise Doust is now leading the school and is being supported by the head teacher of Canon Lane First School, Dr Reena Keeble, who will be overseeing the school on an interim basis."
Councillor Stephen Greek (Cons/Harrow Weald), a governor at the school, said: “This is being investigated very thoroughly and this is being dealt with very carefully by the governing body.
“I understand that the assistant head is looking after things and doing a very good job and that they've got support from the headteacher of another as well to help them along.”
