Welshpool headteacher dismissed

The headteacher of a Mid Wales primary school who was suspended 18 months ago has been dismissed.

Eirios Hall, head of Ardwyn Nursery and Infants School in Welshpool, was suspended in February 2010 while education bosses carried out an internal investigation.

Powys County Council confirmed today Mrs Hall has been dismissed.

Parents have been informed by letter and warned not to ask about the reasons.
