With temperatures set to soar across Norfolk on Monday and amber and red weather warnings in place, some schools have closed for the day or for the afternoon.
While most have closed due to predicted temperatures of up to 40C, for some in west Norfolk it is due to ongoing issues with water supply.
Ashwicken Church of England Primary School it is closing from midday on both Monday and Tuesday due to extreme temperatures in the classroom and "no safe outdoor space" due to artificial grass.

In a letter to parents, City Academy interim headteacher Jenny Comber said: "We have not taken this decision lightly and have considered the following factors.
"The government’s declaration of a level four UKHSA heat health alert for all of England, the likely disruption to public transport and the likely pressure on health services.
"For example, local ambulance services have declared a black alert (their highest alert level) as such there will be tremendous pressure on services should any student or staff member require an ambulance they likely would not get one.
"Our buildings are not air conditioned neither are they well suited for cooling when the outside temperature is very high.
"Early closures were considered but we did not think it safe or sensible to send children on to public transport or to walk home in the middle of the day."
