New Allegations Emerge Against Jailed Head Teacher Neil Foden
North Wales Police are investigating new allegations of grooming and sexual abuse against former head teacher Neil Foden, who is serving a 17-year sentence for previously abusing four girls. Concerns have been raised about the safeguarding processes at Ysgol Friars in Bangor, where Foden was employed. A safeguarding review is underway, but calls for a public inquiry into the school and local council’s handling of the case continue. Many staff report long-term absences, pointing to a toxic environment fostered by Foden’s leadership, tarnishing the school’s reputation and raising questions about accountability.
