A primary school has been forced to close following a flood.

Parents of children at North Denes Primary School in Great Yarmouth were alerted of the burst water pipe that caused the flood at 7.49am today.

The news follows a Norfolk County Council alert that said "water and electrics need to be disconnected" at the school.

According to reports, the floors of both school halls have been flooded.

It is not yet clear when the school will reopen.
