Year 11 pupils are set to return to a Warwick secondary school next week having been forced to start the new school year at home.

Aylesford School has been unable to welcome back most of its students after finding potentially-dangerous concrete on site.

Only Year 7 and 12 pupils returned at the start of term, followed by Year 13's this week.

And posting on social media today, the Tapping Way school announced that even more students can be accommodated from next week.

"Fantastic news, we will be welcoming back all our Year 11 students on Monday 18 September for all their lessons. Further details will follow," the update said.

In a recent update to parents the school said it was working to accommodate all year groups on site after it was told on Friday (September 8) that most of the school would have to remain shut.

The school also said it had been pushing the Department for Education "very hard" for temporary classrooms.

And local MP Matt Western has also continued to petition the government for more support.

"Like you I am still deeply unhappy that we have been placed in this terrible situation," a message from headteacher Tim Hodgson to parents said.

"However, feeling sorry for ourselves won’t get the job done.

"There is so much more to do but I know that each day we are doing everything we can with the resources that we have available.

"I know there is still much more to do, and we are moving as fast as we can with the resources that are available."

The school has also continued to work to get its online teaching platform fully set up for those still at home.

And it has said it is committed to "ensuring that all those who receive free school meals can receive them when not in school".
