I think it's sensible to hear the background. If the report is totally accurate the officers should be suspended immediately... And sacked after an investigation

I think the police investigation is already under way.

Jim Gamble involved, a investigation as already taken place.

The teachers acted lawfully, the police didn't;

Children aged 17 and under need to have an appropriate adult present if they are to be strip-searched, except in urgent cases where there is risk of harm or if a juvenile has specifically stated that they don’t want an appropriate adult there. However, this decision must be recorded and signed by an appropriate adult.

" ... except in urgent cases where there is risk of harm"  If that was the assessment of the situation made by the attending officers ... it would appear to me they acted lawfully.

This is lawful in your considered judgement is it.

5.63 Finding 8: Having considered the context of the incident, the views of
those engaged in the review and the impact felt by Child Q and her family,
racism (whether deliberate or not) was likely to have been an influencing
factor in the decision to undertake a strip search.[/b]

Sounds like political correctness to me

This is why the police cannot stop and search suspects they think are carrying knives (unless they are white).  If they search and there is no knife then they will undoubtedly be accused of racism, so what’s the solution?

I’d like to know why the school called the police in the first place.  Is it a racist school?  It seems an extreme thing to do when you suspect a pupil *might* have brought drugs into school.  Why wouldn’t a search of the child’s personal effects and pockets have been sufficient to satisfy the teachers that she was “clean”?  Perhaps the school should invest in a trained drugs sniffer dog and then all this nastiness could have been avoided.

This is a young school girl in school who previously had smelt allegedly of drugs, its now illegal to smell it would seem .She was on her period and stripped to reveal her intimate parts, you ok with this.

Take it up with Gamble.

Or the police could have brought a drugs dog in, mind dogs are unreliable we're informed.

Perhaps you could point to where I said I was ok with this?  Many thanks for your cooperation in this matter.

It would appear so.Take the racist element out of it and it’s still an appalling way for the police to treat a child.

No wonder the Met conducts itself with such impunity if the public that they are meant to serve are accepting of this kind of behaviour against a mere child.

I guess if she smelt strongly of cannabis the dog would have alerted, so that would have made her guilty going by sceptic logic.

Of do get off your soap box.  I did not say I was ok with it, you WUM.

Please don't be deliberately obtuse in the effort to be offensive.  My post is quite clear
