Loo lunches at full school

- BY JEREMY ARMSTRONG

A HEADTEACHE­R says a cramped school dining hall means some pupils eat lunch in the toilets.

Dr Simon Letman said children also take lunch in corridors and outdoors.

Holbrook Academy, near Ipswich, Suffolk, currently has 560 pupils in a building designed for just 380 when it was built in the 1930s.

Dr Letman told councillor­s: “The main hall does not have capacity for hot meals and packed lunches at the same time. The fact is it is relatively small.”
