Police were this morning dealing with yet another spate of bomb threats at schools.

This time six schools were affected in the West Midlands and two were in Glasgow.

However, it is believed that all the bomb threats were ‘malicious’ and there is no threat to the schools.

Just after 8am calls started to be made to schools and colleges across the West Midlands making the threat.

Detective Inspector Colin Mattinson, from West Midlands Police, said: ‘This morning we have reports of a further six bomb threats, following similar threats made to several schools last week.

‘At this stage there is nothing to suggest there is any credible threat to any of the schools.

‘Our response officers have been sent to the locations to ensure there is no threat to anyone’s safety and support the schools.

‘A police investigation is on-going to find the person responsible for these calls.’

A spokeswoman for Police Scotland said: ‘Two schools in Glasgow have received a threat via the telephone.

‘Staff and police have searched both school buildings and nothing untoward was found.

‘Schools are operating as normal and officers are continuing inquiries.

‘At this stage, police are treating these incidents as malicious calls.’
