A live explosive device unwittingly taken into a Devon primary school for 'show and tell' had to be detonated by a military bomb squad, Devon Live can reveal.
The World War Two era shell was believed to be deactivated - but after it had been shown to children aged 9 and 10 it was discovered to be active.
Now the headteacher of Kingsacre Primary School, in Braunton where the incident occurred, has said the school "clearly needs to review our procedures for show-and-tell".
