He put his hand down (he follows Authority to the letter) and had an accident. He was mortified, he hadn't had an accident for years by this point and then had to wear his pe shorts for the rest of the day in January. His legs were purple by the time I picked him up.

I was fuming and told him if he needs the toilet in future to just go and I will deal with the consequences. He developed an aversion to using the bathrooms at school and even now will only use them if absolutely necessary

That's despicable in a primary school.
