Police probe head assault claim
A HEAD TEACHER is being investigated by police after allegedly assaulting her deputy.
Bletchley's Lord Grey head Despina Pavlou (pictured) is said to be "working from home" while the matter is being dealt with, after the deputy head teacher made a formal complaint to police. A police spokesman said: "Police have received a complaint of an assault which allegedly happened at that school on Thursday, February 2. At this time officers are continuing their inquiries into this complaint. No arrests have been made."No mention of the alleged incident was made in the weekly newsletter delivered to parents last Friday, but it was revealed this week that Roger Conibear, former head at Denbigh School, took over as acting headteacher.In a statement issued on behalf of the school, he said: "There are a number of management issues which the head teacher and governors at Lord Grey are working through and in order to speed up the process the head teacher is working from home during this two to three week period."The governors have asked me to be the executive head at the school. I will ensure that the pace and rigour of teaching and learning at Milton Keynes' most improving school is maintained."Mr Conibear stressed that Ms Pavlou has not been suspended.Milton Keynes Council, the Local Education Authority, added it is working "closely" with the Bletchley-based Foundation School which has 1,400 students.Ms Pavlou, renowned for her no-nonsense style, markedly improved exam results at Lord Grey since joining in September 2000.That year the school had received a damning Ofsted report, concluding it had few strengths and some serious weaknesses, but improvements were soon made after her arrival.Last year it had a 97 per cent GCSE pass rate.In 2002, she defended a controversial decision to expel two students, exclude six others and punish 41 others for a series of Halloween pranks that included eggs being thrown at her car.At the time she told the Citizen: "Our ethos highlights the provision of a safe environment... I will not tolerate any attack on our community."Lord Grey School this month hit the headlines when it challenged in the House of Lords a ruling that it should pay compensation to a former pupil, Abdul Hakim Ali, who was excluded after being accused of starting a fire in a waste paper basket. The legal wrangle has lasted at least four years.
