Eleven pupils who were arrested in connection with a previous fire that destroyed 11 classrooms at Riverlea Secondary School last year were given counselling and released.
This is according to the chairperson of the school governing body, Keagan Everson, who said failure to take action may have contributed to another fire breaking out at the school on Tuesday.
The fire, whose origins are still under investigation, destroyed three classrooms, a laboratory and a library.
