A HEREFORDSHIRE school has closed its doors due to its heating system breaking.

Bosbury C E Primary School said it is closed to students on Wednesday, January 7.

Herefordshire Council provided an update and said, "The school heating system has broken down. We anticipate the system will be fixed by tomorrow."

There are currently low temperatures across Herefordshire, with the Met Office issuing separate warnings for snow and ice.

The disruption comes as temperatures continue to drop across Herefordshire, creating challenging conditions if without a means to stay warm.

Forecasters say the cold spell is expected to last until the end of this week, with an amber warning for snow issued for the county on Thursday and Friday.

Lady Hawkins High School in Kington also closed its doors due to the outdoor conditions.
