A Glasgow West End school has been shut due to a suspected Norovirus related outbreak.

Kelbourne Park primary and nursery closed on Monday after an outbreak of sickness and diarrhoea with children and a ‘large number’ of staff infected.

It comes as Sunnyside Primary in Craigend was hit with a Covid outbreak this week – with half the kids off and 10 teachers affected. The council’s education boss said it can’t close as vulnerable families need support and extra staff have been brought it to help run it. The school has been deep cleaned and all children were asked to take a lateral flow test.
