A school for children of military parents in Kent has been rocked after two men with links to it were arrested for alleged child porn offences, it was revealed today.

The husband of a staff member at the Duke of York's Royal Military School in Dover was cautioned in April for allegedly publishing indecent images.

Last week, a teaching student helping out on a gap year was also arrested by police for allegedly viewing and storing indecent images.

Set within 150 acres, the institution is a distinguished independent boarding school for 11 to 18-year-old sons and daughters of Army, Navy and RAF personnel.

It also educates children whose parents have served in any of the armed forces on a regular engagement for a minimum of four years.

In April, a large section of the school was destroyed in a fire that ripped through a boarding house.

A Kent Police spokesman said: "A 34-year-old man who is the husband of a member of staff at the school was arrested on suspicion of possessing indecent images.

"He has been bailed until while officers make further enquiries.

"In a separate incident, a 19-year-old man on a gap year helping out at the school was arrested on June 22 on suspicion of possessing indecent images.

"He is on bail until September 15 while officers make further enquiries."

KentOnline understands that neither investigation has involved any of the 442 pupils who attend the school.

A spokesman for the MoD, which runs the school, said: "We are aware that the spouse of a member of staff has been arrested in relation to an allegation of publishing indecent photographs.

"As a safeguarding measure, that individual will not be allowed access to the school while the police investigation is ongoing.

"In a separate incident, a gap year teaching student has been cautioned by police for viewing and storing indecent images.

"The individual is no longer on site or on the staff."
