Parents, teachers and pupils have been left with "a sour taste in our mouths" after the lead from a school roof was stolen over the summer holidays.

"We spent a lot of the time last year getting the school redecorated and parents came in, the children helped, and we were looking forward to coming back to a lovely sparkling new school," mother Jayne Lewis said.

West Down Primary School in Ilfracombe will have to raise the money itself for a new roof after it discovered a clause in their insurance policy meant they were not covered.
