INDEPENDENT REPORT INTO FODEN CASE 'COMPLETED'

CYNGOR Gwynedd has released an update in relation to a report into the crimes of disgraced headteacher Neil Foden.

- 

Foden, who was one of the country’s most influential “super heads’, was jailed last year for 17 years for sexually abusing four girls in North Wales.

These related to offences while he was headteacher at Ysgol Friars in Bangor.

Cyngor Gwynedd has faced criticism over its failures in the scandal and its response after Foden was found guilty.

The previous leader, Dyfrig Siencyn, stood down after a row over his failure to initially apologise to the victims of the paedophile headteacher.

An investigation has been launched into what went wrong.

A report was completed three weeks ago and assessments are now being carried out about what can be publicly reported, as it “contains sensitive and confidential information’.
