South Wales Police said its inquiries were ongoing.

The force confirmed it received a complaint relating to the care of children at the school on 12 July.

It added it was liaising with social services and the education authority to ensure the safeguarding of all pupils.

In the letter to parents, chair of governors Kelvin Rees said: "The purpose of this letter is to make you aware that an interim team will lead and manage the school from Wednesday."
