School ‘working with police’
In a letter to parents on Thursday, the school’s head teacher said: “As many of you may be aware, we became aware of an incident on Tuesday, and we promptly reported this to Police Scotland.
“We are continuing to work with the police on this matter. As this is a live investigation, we cannot comment any further at this point.
“If your young person requires support, please contact their guidance teacher.”
A Dundee City Council spokesperson said: “It would be inappropriate to comment on an ongoing police investigation.”
