A father has defended his 14-year-old daughter after she was suspended for taking ecstasy and swilling vodka in the playground - saying it was the school’s fault for 'not having enough teachers.'

Stuart Whincup, 37, vowed to stand by his young daughter Jamie-Leigh who was rushed to hospital on Monday after taking the dangerous cocktail of drugs and alcohol.

The unemployed dad-of-five complained that 'somebody must have laced her vodka' after paramedics were called to University Academy Holbeach, in Spalding, Lincolnshire, following reports Jamie-Leigh was hallucinating, and vomiting in the school’s medical room.

Mr Whincup, from Whaplode St Catherine, Lincs, said yesterday: 'It’s only partly her fault - since the school merged with another there’s not enough teachers to monitor all the pupils.
