TWO people have been arrested by police investigating alleged financial mismanagement at a Wembley school.

A man and a woman, both 51, were taken in for questioning from separate addresses in northwest London on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud Copland Community School, in Cecile Avenue.

This is the second round of arrests in a probe of alleged misappropriation of Copland's funds after ex-head Sir Alan Davies, deputy Dr Richard Evans and a 50-year-old woman were questioned on Tuesday, March 1.

The trio were bailed by police to return in September, while the two new suspects are being quizzed at police stations in northwest London.
