A former music teacher from Hereford, charged with a number of offences against under-aged girls has started giving evidence.

Nicholas Fisher, 43, from Bartestree is standing trial at Worcester Crown Court charged with making indecent images of a child and possessing what's been described as a "paedophile manual".

He pleaded guilty to downloading a file called Jazz Guides from the so-called dark web which contained indecent images, but says he had no idea they were part of the music guide and attempted to delete the folder immediately.

He went on to say he didn't know how other other "manuals" ended upon his computer .

Mr Fisher says he accessed the dark web purely to download expensive music software for free and described himself as "naive".

The trial continues.

The head teacher says the school in Stoke-on-Trent never meant to harm its pupils.

A Christmas grotto event held at a school may not go ahead this year after vandals smashed and stole decorations.

Greenwood Academy in Castle Vale has held Santa on the Vale since 2012, which promises "live performance, fun activities, food and drink and a Christmas market" all for free, as well as the £3 grotto visit.

Trevor Evans, from the school, says a community fundraising page has been set-up with the aim of raising £1,000 before the end of the week. So far almost £500 has been pledged.

Will the event go ahead as planned on 20 December? The school say a decision will be made later this week.
