Eye On Wales: Monday 18 June
Investigating the investigators
Monday 18 June at 6.32pm
(repeated Sunday 24 June at 6.31am)
Since last Autumn, school governors have been able to call in an independent team of special investigators to examine child protection allegations involving staff.
With its roots in the Clywch inquiry into the abuse of pupils by drama teacher John Owen, the principle of the Independent Investigation Service has the support of all in education.
But now that investigators are regularly being called into Welsh schools - 67 times in a little over six months - one teaching union says its members are being put under unnecessary stress and is calling for an urgent review of the system.
Eye on Wales hears the union's concerns, speaks to one teacher who has been investigated and cleared and talks to the man running the new service to get a progress report on the new service.
