Schools closed

TWO schools have closed because of central heating problems.

A broken heating pump has caused Luddington and Garthorpe Primary School to be closed for all pupils and staff.

A spokeswoman for the school said: "It's just a heating pump that's broken down.

"As far as I know it's just closed today."

The school is expected to reopen tomorrow.

Meanwhile Melior Community College, Chandos Road, Scunthorpe, is closed today for Year 10 students.

A spokeswoman for the college said: "It's just closed for Year 10 only because of a heating failure in some of the classrooms. It is expected to reopen for Year 10 students tomorrow."
