A former finance chief and head of department at one of the Government 's first free schools have been charged with fraud . Staff at Kings Science Academy in Bradford , West Yorkshire , were arrested on suspicion of fraud offences such as abusing their positions and false accounting last year . The school 's founder , Sajid Raza , who gave David Cameron a guided tour of the academy after setting it up in 2011 , was charged with a range of offences including fraud by false representation last week . Three staff members at Kings Science Academy in Bradford , West Yorkshire , have been charged with fraud offences . Among them is the school 's founder Sajid Raza pictured giving David Cameron a tour of the school in 2012 . Today the Crown Prosecution Service ( CPS ) confirmed Daud Khan , the school 's former director of finance , and Shabana Hussain , a former head of department , would also face charges . All three will appear before Leeds Magistrates Court at a date yet to be fixed . Their arrests came after an investigation by the Education Funding Agency which found that more than £86,000 of funds given to the school had 'not been used for its intended purpose ' . Claims included reimbursements for First Class plane tickets , furniture and parties , the report found . 'Having carefully considered all of the evidence presented to us , we have concluded that there is sufficient evidence to charge Daud Khan ( former director of finance ) and Shabana Hussain ( former head of department ) with a range of offences relating to their involvement with the Kings Science Academy , Bradford , and that it is in the public interest to do so , ' Julian Briggs , from CPS Yorkshire and Humberside , said . 'Accordingly , I have today authorised West Yorkshire Police to charge Daud Khan with two offences of fraud by abuse of position and three of false accounting , and Shabana Hussain with one offence of fraud by abuse of position and one offence of acquiring criminal property . An Education Funding Agency investigation claimed the school spent more than £86,000 of taxpayers ' money on items that were not 'the intended use ' Following Raza 's arrest in 2014 the Liberal Democrat MP for Bradford East , David Ward , put pressure on the then Education Secretary Michael Gove to address the fact taxpayers ' money had been poured into the allegedly corrupt school . He declined to speak about the matter in the House of Commons , telling politicians he did not want to influence any police activity . Kings Science Academy was among the first free schools to be set up by the coalition in 2011 . A year after its completion the Prime Minister visited the site to speak with pupils . He was photographed being shown around the grounds by Raza , 41 . Last week he was charged with three offences of fraud by abuse of position , three offences of false accounting , two offences of obtaining a money transfer by deception , and one offence of fraud by false representation .
