Three teenagers are due to appear in court following break-ins at a Mapperley school.

Police were called to the Wells Academy on Ransom Drive after staff reported a classroom had been broken into on February 14, 2024 during the half-term break.

Officers then attended the school the following day when intruders again gained access to the site and caused damage.

Officers have been analysing the school’s CCTV footage and carrying out other local inquiries following the incidents.

Three boys, aged 15, 16 and 16, who can’t be named for legal reasons, have now been charged with burglary.

They are due to appear at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on 4 September 2024.

Chief Inspector Mike Ebbins, of Nottinghamshire Police, said:

“We have been working alongside the school since the break-in so I’m pleased these three suspects have now been charged and given a court date.”
