The head teacher and five staff members have been suspended from a primary school as police investigate the alleged ill treatment of pupils.

The staff at Revoe Primary School in Blackpool were suspended after concerns were raised before the half-term break last week, the council said.

It said no child was believed to have come to any harm but that it was a "serious situation".

Lancashire Constabulary has also confirmed it is investigating.

The allegations are not believed to be of a sexual nature.

Sarah Riding, cabinet member for education and schools, said the six had been replaced with temporary members of staff and parents had been informed.

'Early stages'

She said: "Before half term we were made aware of an issue at Revoe Primary School that raised concerns to us about the professional judgement made by a number of staff in relation to pupil well-being.

"These concerns have led to the suspension of six members of staff while a full investigation is carried out.

"It would not be appropriate to comment further on the nature of the investigation until it has been concluded."

A police spokeswoman said: "This allegation, like any allegation involving the well-being of young people, is being taken extremely seriously and will be thoroughly investigated as our priority is the safeguarding of young people.

"We are in the early stages of this inquiry and are working closely with the school and the local authority to establish the circumstances.

"No arrests have been made at this stage."

The school, on Grasmere Road, teaches children aged between two and 11 years old. It has about 400 pupils and employs about 70 members of staff.
