A BRADFORD primary school has reopened after a water leak damaged classrooms - but one year group is still off.

Shipley Church of England Primary School, in Otley Road was forced to close yesterday due to an overnight water leak.

This damaged classrooms at the setting and also resulted in a loss of water at the site, according to a spokesperson for the school.

But the school has announced via Bradford Council's "school closures" page that it has reopened today for all but one year group.

The announcement said: "Following the recent leak, school will reopen for all classes except Year 1 tomorrow.

"Year 1 will return on Friday."
