Tiverton School Lockdown Two Boys Arrested After Intruder Incident
Police came and checked the school. All staff and students were safe. No one suffered injuries. Two boys were arrested today, February 28. They are suspected of causing a public nuisance.
The boys also face charges for theft and assault. These charges are unrelated to the school incident. Both boys are currently in police custody. This happened this afternoon, February 28.
A police inspector for Mid Devon spoke about the arrests. He wants to reassure the Tiverton community. Police take antisocial behavior seriously, he stated, and this behavior will not be tolerated.
Police teams work hard for Tiverton’s safety. They want people to live free from disruptive behavior. They work with the council to handle these issues and pursue criminal charges for offenders.
The police also seek injunctions when needed. These are for people who don’t change their behavior. The school’s headteacher, James Lamb, sent a letter to parents. He said the intruders’ motives were unclear.
The headteacher confirmed police found no weapons. The trespassers also had no substances on them. The lockdown occurred because of the pair’s actions. They did not respond to school staff appropriately.
An ex-student and a friend entered school grounds. They should not have been there. The headteacher will meet with police and discuss ways to prevent it from happening again.
The school requests more police presence near the school. Students know the lockdown procedure. They must follow it without question because there might not be time to explain during the event.
The school will review what happened during the lockdown. This will help them improve the process. The headteacher appreciates feedback from families and understands it’s a stressful event.
The school is checking on students who were affected. They spoke to Year 7 students today. Teachers will discuss the procedures during tutor time and encourage students to talk to staff if worried.
