The headmaster and teacher of a former Fife school have been convicted of physical and sexual abuse against six pupils more than 30 years ago.
John Farrell, 73, of Motherwell, was found guilty of four charges and Paul Kelly, 64, of Plymouth, was convicted of seven charges.
They abused boys aged between 11 and 15 at St Ninian’s in Falkland, a school for children from troubled backgrounds.
It was run by the Christian Brothers organisation and closed in 1983.
Farrell and Kelly, who both denied all charges, were remanded in custody pending sentencing next month.
