Junior school defends toilet CCTV

A junior school head teacher has defended the use of CCTV in toilet blocks in an effort to deter vandals.

Len Holman, from Angel Road Junior School in Norwich, said pupils had asked for the cameras to protect refurbished toilet blocks.

But the human rights organisation Liberty condemned the measure.

Its director Shami Chakrabarti said the cameras would only serve to prepare children for "a lifetime of pretty intrusive surveillance".
