A disgraced former headteacher and five former members of his staff have been told by the High Court they must pay back money they illegally received while working at Copland School. Davies, alongside former deputy head Dr Richard Evans, former HR manager Michele McKenzie and former school bursar Columbus Udokoro, benefited from the cash.
Davies was stripped of his knighthood after he was given a two-year suspended sentence for false accounting in 2013. In the same trial the former staff had conspiracy to defaud charges dropped.
