Hundreds of protesters have marched through north London in support of a black pupil strip-searched at school after being wrongly suspected of carrying drugs.
Protesters chanted "love for Child Q" through the streets of north Londonto the school's medical room and strip-searched while on her period by two female Met police officers searching for cannabis, while teachers remained outside.
The girl's mother told the safeguarding review - by City of London and Hackney Safeguarding Children Partnership - that after the strip-search, her daughter had been "asked to go back into the exam" she had been sitting, with no teacher asking about her welfare. Her family said the girl had changed from "top of the class" to "a shell of her former bubbly self", and she was now self-harming and required therapy.The Independent Office of Police Conduct said its investigation was complete and its report was being "finalised".
It added three police constables had been served with notices last year advising them they were under investigation for misconduct, "over their roles in either carrying out the strip-search or involvement in supervising it". Scotland Yard said the officers' actions were "truly regrettable" and it "should never have happened".
