A school has been placed into lockdown as Police respond to an ongoing incident. 

Dyfed-Powys Police confirmed that officers are in attendance at Brecon High School.

A spokesperson told Your Herefordshire:

“We are dealing with an incident at Brecon High School, following a report made at 11.38am. We will publish more updates as soon as we can.”

It comes as the school sent out the following message this lunchtime:

The school remains in a perimeter lockdown. 

This means that no one is able to enter or leave the school site at this time. 

The police have confirmed that it is safe for pupils to remain indoors, and lessons are continuing as normal.

Lunch arrangements will take place as normal, with pupils supervised inside and on site.

We kindly ask that parents and carers do not come to school to collect children at this time, as this may hinder the safe and effective management of the situation. 

We will provide further updates as soon as additional information is available.
