Kingshurst Primary left reeling after boiler floods school

A MAJOR boiler leak has meant that many children at one local school will not be allowed back into the classroom until the start of next week.
Kingshurst Primary experienced major flooding during the half-term break, causing damage to the kitchens and central area.
Those pupils based in the single-storey part of the school were allowed back today (Wednesday), but staff have ruled it will be unsafe for Years 2-6 to return until the start of next week.
In a statement on its Facebook page, the school said it was "devastated" by the flooding.
"We are all very aware of the inconvenience that this has caused our families and are continuing to work closely with the insurer's recovery team and the school's catering service to plan a full reopen as soon as possible."
It was later confirmed that the older pupils were due to go back on Monday (June 13).
Kingshurst Primary only opened its doors in 2008, with the £7million building the first of the new schools to be completed as part of the North Solihull Regeneration.
