September 25, 2025

THE release of a report into the sexual abuse of girls by a paedophile headteacher has been delayed just hours before it was due to be made public.

- HOLLY MORGAN Reporter holly.morgan@reachplc

The yearlong investigation into Neil Foden, which was due to have its findings published by the North Wales Safeguarding Board, has been postponed.

Foden, former head of Ysgol Friars, in Bangor, and strategic head of Ysgol Dyffryn Nantlle in Penygroes, was sentenced to 17 years in prison in 2024 for 19 sexual offences against four girls between 2019 and 2023.

But late on Tuesday afternoon an official statement from the board announced the publication of the Child Practice Review was being delayed while “the board considers its legal obligations and information-sharing further”.

The board stated it was “unable to provide any further details at this stage” and no new date for the report's publication has been released.
