My eight year old defecates in his shorts at school

I'm distressed. My eight year old defecates on himself while at school. It all started when he was in p.1. Now he is in p.3 . During holidays, he doesn't get any such "accidents ". It only happens at school. We (teachers, I and the father) have tried to establish the cause but failed. We have talked to him and tried to ask him why it happens but he doesn't give us any reasons. He just looks terrified and cries. This thing is distressing me. I don't know how I can help him to overcome it. It used to be occasional but now it is more common like 2 times in a week or three. Do you have any ideas for me?
