Police carried out strip searches on ten male students at a school in Derbyshire after receiving a tip-off that they were smuggling drugs in their underwear.

The incident happened at John Port School, in Etwall - an academy judged as 'outstanding' by Ofsted.

Officers said they found drugs hidden in the underpants of two pupils, aged 15 and 16.

The teens were both arrested on suspicion of possessing a controlled substance and later bailed pending the results of forensic tests.

The pair have also been suspended by the school, until the completion of the Derbyshire Police investigation as part of John Port's 'zero tolerance drugs policy'. It is the largest school in Derbyshire, with 2,000 pupils.
