This led to those involved being “escorted off the premises” and no violence or injuries were reported.

A parent, who asked not to be named, told The Star today: “This is frightening to hear so soon after a previous incident and I hope and pray everyone is okay and the incident is resolved peacefully.

“Now is not the time for recriminations but the school will have some serious questions to answer in the coming days.
