TWO fire crews attended a fire at a girls school which is thought to have been started deliberately.

Fire appliances from Crownhill and Camels Head fire stations put out the blaze in a storage cupboard in the art department of Notre Dame Roman Catholic School.

50 per cent of the cupboard has been damaged in the fire, which crews were called to at around 2.30pm.

A spokesman for the fire service confirmed that they attended the scene and said that early investigations suggest that the fire was started deliberately.

    “I totally disagree with plymboy.
    Notre Dame is a fantastic school which faces the same challenges as every other school in Plymouth. Bullying is not unique to ND and is treated seriously. Teachers put every effort in to the students and are constantly overworked and still manage to make time for parents who demand to speak to them at all hours of the day.
    Students that leave Notre Dame are well rounded and well prepared for their future and I for one believe that criticisms of the school are unjustified.”

    “This no longer a good school. The behaviour is terrible, students are bullied and are not in trouble for it. The teachers don't care, they are always on their mobile phones during lessons, they run down the headteacher to the students. There is absolutely no respect. No committment the teachers all leave as soon as the bell goes. I would not recommend this school.”
